Default distibutor ?

whats SOHC vtec distributor will bolt up to a d16y8 besides the y8's. i heard the z6's wont. im looking for an obd1 vtec distributor that will. im trying to convert to obd1 to run a vtec ecu. does it matter if its obd1 or obd2, cause if it doesnt matter i will just run the y8's. thanks

im pretty sure the obd1 d15b bolts right up, if not better than the d16z6 distributor. thats whut i can remember. but keep in mind that u can prettymuch use any obd1 distributor as long as u can adapt it somehow.

yea i found a company that makes adapter plugs for this situation, but does the distributor have to be from a vtec motor, or just any obd1 distributor.

thanks

you are going to want the distributor that fits with that head, cause otherwise it wont line up right and you will have major issues

Any OBD1 or OBD2 SOHC Vtec or non-Vtec distributor will bolt up to the Y8 head, except the D16Z6 distributor. Other than that, its just wiring and plugs.

I'm running a OBD-1 CX distributor on a Y8 head and a stock P28 ECU.

Vtec or not, doesn't matter. As long as its not a D16Z6 distributor.
