Is there any major differences in the B-series Distributors. VTEC vs. Non VTEC? Going to do my obd0 to obd1 change over on my B16A and a bit puzzled. Can i use a B18 LS distr. or do i have to get the B16a3 distr. ????

 

the mounting spots are diff. between vtec and non vtec

 

So i wouldnt be able to use the non VTEC distributor or is there a way of modifing????

 

you can use it but like everyone does.... your gonna have to cut off a leg off the dizzy..... and them it will fit and work..... but if your trying to make a clean obd1 conversion just get an si single cam or ex or gsr dizzy.... those work....

 

Excuse my ignorance, but I'm actually doing this exact same thing with my B16A, you're saying that the single cam vtec dizzys work as well?

 

yeah i have a p28 dizzy on my ls vtec.... on my previous setup i had a b20 vtec and i had an si single cam non vtec dizzy on it...... fit perfectly.....

 

Did it happen to leak oil from the dis. seal? I was told that they leak oil like an sob because of the different size.

 

 

You can use a LS obd 1 Distrubtor but you have to cut off the leg that hits the vtec solinoid .

It will not leak.... Just doesnt look pretty.

 

it all depends on how you work!!! if you do work quick just for it to work then its gonna look nasty but if you know how to do it its not... my friends has his right now and his look clean......

 

For what it is worth, the OBD1 and OBD2 electronics are the same so you can use an OBD2 with the OBD1 ecu.
