which dizzy?

[breed]

I have a 99 ls block and a jdm b16a2 head with no dizzy. I wanted to know if I could use a obd 1 d series dizzy off a sohc vtec motor on my b16a2 head? I asked this question before and was told that i can't but I talked to a shop and they said they have done it before but I would have to make brackets because the holes don't line up when you mount it. does anyone know for sure?

if its cheap to make the brackets then anythings worth a try.

it CAN be done .... but its just kinda hacked together using one bolt

personally i would pass on that shit and just get the right distributor

DITTO.

I've seen some people use a SOHC dizzy on their B-series engine, and it worked, but it didn't last long. Car starts to run shitty. B-series dizzy is the only way.

really makes me wonder why people skimp on important-ass things like this (and converting an OBD1 vehicle to OBD-0 spec). mind boggling.

who said anything about converting from obd1 to obd0.
