Default DOHC ZC problems

I had to swap out my LS from my wagovan cause a rod fell out. Wasn't torque down properly, never buy a 'rebuild' engine.

Anyways, I swapped in the DOHC ZC and it went pretty smooth with next to no hiccups until I get to the dizzy. My 1.6 L Si one doesn't bolt up at all. Could it be that the dizzy I bought is a B18A1 dizzy and not an Si? Anyone with experience on that info please help me out. I really don't wanna spend over 100$ on a DOHC ZC specific one if the Si one works.

Also I have a 1.5L DX dizzy. The car was converted to the Si one but I would like to convert back to it and run the crank sensor on the exhaust cam. Will the 1.5L one fit? I have a few spares at my parent's house but didn't bring them to the shop to try them out.

A few other questions I would like to know about the DOHC ZC is why does the Si throttle cable barely fits after adjustment? It's at the very edge of the adjustment thread. I'm running the ZC IM but with an Si throttle body. Could that be it?

I know these questions have probably been answered but whatever, searching 'dohc zc dizzy' didn't yield much info for me.

Good call, forgot about that. Thing is those are harder to find then OBD0 B16 dizzys. Would the 1.6L Si work in anyway or I need to get a DOHC D series dizzy.
