Icon2 Wrong head on block need help

Hey guys I'm back my problem this time is my 94 accord ex with a F22b1 snapped the timing belt and screwed the valves in the head so i had it towed to my mechanic for a head well i bought a new head had it rebuilt resurfaced and all they installed it with with a new timing belt kit and head gasket it fit perfect but we just realized its a f23a1 head and we put it on a f22b1 block now it fit perfect lined up perfect but the distributor from the b1 wouldn't fit so i bought a 2000 accord distributor and it doesn't match the wiring harness as in my wiring harness has 2 plugs and distributor only has one and idk if it even fits in it yet is there any thing special i need to do or get and what else should be done to make it run because im about to junk it lol

Swap the plug ends. Tear both distributors apart and get them go work.

Also, install some periods.

Why isn't the b1 distributor fitting ? What's happening when you try to insert it ?

Those distributors are not obd compatible.

i believe the bolt holes/mounting ears don't match up. if i were faced with this on a car i was trying to get running, i would just fab up an adapter flange or some bracketry to make the B1 distributor work.
