Default 88 crx si distributor on a 91

I already searched but wanted to clarify this issue before I pick up an 88 si dizzy for my 91 si.

The part #for an 88 dizzy is: (TD-02U)
https://www.hondapartsdeals.co...+0501

The part number for a 91 is: (TD-18U)
https://www.hondapartsdeals.co...+0501

I KNOW for a fact that the 88 d16a6 had some subtle differences from other years, namely intake size and TDC position. But can I be certain that an 88 si dizzy will work 100% with my 91, and I don't mean will it just run the car, but will the ignition timing be at spec??

I'm pretty sure they are different since 88 was teh bastard year of them all, just FYI a 90-91 LS distributor will work also

Bump for a definite answer (I know this is a relatively old post) but I need to know since I want to buy a backup dizzy off an 88 for my 91.

I know that the 88 d16a6 has different cam TDC settings but does that mean the dizzys are different? Thanks.

The only one that is different is the dx model. It will work.
