Default 90 Honda civic 1.6 L spark knock

hi guys, I have a 1990 Honda Civic base model hatchback and I have recently noticed some spark knock on hard acceleration. What you need to know is that I have recently put in a sohc ZC 1.6 L , now I did not have the multi port injection conversion yet so I used my DPFI intake, distributor and computer. Now I know that the 1.5 L and the 1.6L cam timing set up is a bit different between the two as far as lining up marks and such. is it possible that because I I am using the DPFI set up that I need to do the cam timing as if it was a 1.5L engine because of the distributor, intake and ecu being from a 1.5

cam timing needs to be the same as the Si D16A6 - it is not the same as the 1.5 engines
