Will an OBD1 distributor work on a first gen B16A?

I have a first gen B16A (non-OBD) in my CRX and need a distributor? I'm just wondering, do you have to find an OBD0 distributor or will and OBD1 work?

Thanks in advance!

not 100% sure but i think you can just rewire the dizzy to the obd0 engine harness. In obd1 & obd2 you can rewire, you just match the color of the wires on the dizzy plug to the same color wires on the engine harness plug.
