Using a non-obd SOHC distributor for a DOHC VTEC head. . .possible?
Question:
Can I use a non-obd (1990 CRX Si) distributor in place of a non-obd DOHC VTEC (b16) distributor? My ignitor went out, and to my luck I had my SOHC distributor laying around. I opened it up to see if i can just swap the ignitors, and they looked virtually the same. So what I did was cut off the leg (like how people cut off LS distributor legs) that got in the way of the vtec solenoid. Should this work? Any help is appreciated.
