Im putting that 92 LS motor in my CRX, but I need a 90-91 Integra Dist. for it to work...I was going to put the SI Dist. on the LS motor, and sell the SI motor to Walter...now Walter isnt going to get my SI Dist., so I need to know if he can put his DX Dist. on my SI motor?

you can use a DX dist on an SI and vise versa, but you have to rewire 2 wires(crank angle sensor, cant remember the other one).

Honestly, I would like to know how?? The DX dist. only has six wires with a square plug, like a ZC plug, where the SI has a round plug with 8 wires. Where did the extra two come from?? According to the factory service manual for an 88 CRX, as well as the manual for a 91 CRX, the DX distributor is missing a blu/yel, and a blu/grn wire, both of which are for the Cylinder position sensor, that is completely missing from the DX dist. Seeing how it does not contain this sensor, how did you magically make it apper inside?

Why don't you just trade distributors?

Really though. Does the DX dist have the cyl pos sensor in there, just not wired or something? I know that the DX dist that I've seen only have the six five wire plug.
