Nope, I'm pretty sure the only one that will fit close is an older integra one, but then you need to cut one of the legs off. But don't quote me on that, not really sure. I know the si one won't work though.

90-91 integra and you do need to cut one of the arms but it will work fine with 2 arms.

The civic will work just the legs may not line up. But in a pinch you could always cut and use large washer. If your strapped for $$$$ and have a xtra SI your not using cut it to fit. Or swap the SI internals into the B16 electronicly there the same thing, just the casing is different

done it.... You needs some tamper proof star bits and be extemly careful because the screws in the diz will break very easily. Just unscrew everything and swap it over. Shafts, sensors, wheels are all the same for the MPFI.

if the rotor still turns on the dizzy then the problem isnt your dizzy itself...its the internals...i got all new internals for mine. i have an ignitor if you need one. i got a new one and it turned out that mine was fine.

yeah thats the cap and rotor that you use. Prior post about the bearing is correct, if the sensor is all thats bad you can swap them with any of the other sensors theres a total of 3 available in a SI diz. DX have 2 and those will also work. Colors would be different but also in a pinch will work. If the bearing is bad its ezer to swap the whole shaft alone.

is it the shaft with the 3 wheels 1 with 16teeth, 4 teeth then single tooth?? Then it has a metal plate with 3 screws that hold it into place?? to remove that you remove the 3 tamper screws carfully or will snap, then on the outside where it goes, there a clip need to take off then a pin that you push out then the shaft then the part that goes into head (too early cann't think of name) will slide off with 3 black washers and the whole shaft can be slid out.....
