Default For anyone that wants to know

Just figured I would post something I just found out for anyone that cares.

a OBD 0 B16A distubutor will work on a B18A (90-91 teg) however only the top leg of the distubutor will bolt up, also the Ignition timing will not be correct due to not being able to advance the distubutor enough. So this will work if you are in a bind.

Just figured I'd share the info since my B18A distubutor died due to a bad bearing and I tried this since I had a B16A distubutor laying around.

I dont think that I would trust 1 bolt holding it on.

well I used it for about 2 blocks to see how it would run. But then I decided to not be a cheap bastard and bought a used distrubutor. (the reason I even tried this was my original distrubutor had a seized bearing)
