i think you have to modify it to make it work.

Modified it will work, but the internals of the dizzy are not designed for the higher revs that you will probably take the B16 to. It would be atemp fix, but I suggest looking into getting a replacement B16A dizzy.

What is wrong with the Dizzy? If it is an ignitor or a coil you can swap them. The only reason to ditch the whole dizzy is if the bearings went out in it, even that I suppose could be fixxed.
