I have a B16 and I want to go obd1... my question is: Can I just buy a dizzy from a D16, or do I have to find like a obd1 del sol dizzy or GSR or something?

 

My question is: Will D series distributers fit on B series motors?

 

Come on... some one has to know this.

 

Thanks Honda Tech for your awesome technical answers!

 

NO

 

Thanks Thats all I needed.

 

actually i think my buddy has a crx dizzy on his b18a i will ask him tomorrow and make sure, and see how he did it..

 

?? What did he say?

 

A d-series distributor won't fit on a B16 motor. I tried it and the bolt pattern is different.

Tell you what, make sure the plug wire order is correct, make sure the timng is set, and go out there and HOLD a d-series dizzy on your b-series and have a buddy crank it over. It WILL start as long as you have the correct dizzy for the obd you are running. After that you can eyeball how it will bolt up...maybe only use two fins?? a bracket?? If I have to I can check to see exactly how my buddy did his if you are wondering.. this is result of no budget honda building..lol

 

I just went out and forked out the $250 for a new dizzy .
