Default swap distributor plug for mpfi swap??

I tried searching but didnt find anything specific..

For you guys that went to dual point to B series, did you have to extend any wires, for the tps , iac or anything??

I 've heard of some people needing to, while others no (in general)

I thought since B series are bigger and sit back farther, it may not be needed?

Cool, thanks.

How long did it take you to do it? (First time)

I had to extend my TPS, and the plug the plugs into the third runner on the intake manifold (cant think of the name). Besides that everything else was fine.

What would i do if i installed a b16 into a dx, for the distributor plugs?

Would i clip off the dx plugs and solder on new plugs that fit the b16?

What I did was got the Si style plug and re-pinned it on to the DX harness..
adding the two extra wires for the crank sensor..
No cutting was necessary..

You gotta get a male connector to hook to the B16 female plug on the dizzy, you have to run like two or four wires from the ECU to the dizzy. I also had to lengthin added to all those listed above n some dizzy wires and my IAT sensor wires.

So that would be the same as pinning all the wires into a b16 connector...thats a lot of pins to remove
