you cannot use a del sol vtec - it's obd1, not obd0.

this has been posted a few times recently, but here goes again -

you can use a 90-91 ls distributor - apparently you have to knock off the leg near the vtec solenoid.

you can take the guts out of a 90-91 ls distributor & put them in your b16a distributor body.

you can get your current distributor rebuilt - check www.moto-parts.com

you can have a friend in japan or europe buy you a new one from a honda dealer & ship it to you.

you can try to find a used/new one for sale in classifieds or on partstrader.com

that's all the options i know of!

As for those parts just get the ones from b16a2. They will fit fine. Or Del Sol b16a motors.

sorry for being real stupid , but what waterpump should i use for my b16a1. can i use the 90-93 integra b18 water pumps? reason im changing the waterpump is cause hondamotorsonline says that you need to change the waterpump, spark plug and wires, rotor, timing belt, and tension pulley before you fire up the motor.
