    Default D16Y8 DISTRIBUTOR QUESTION!!!

    I HAD A EG WITH A D16Z6 MOTOR N NOW I HAVE A OBD2 D16Y8 BUT IT WONT TURN ON!! EVERYTHING SOUNDS GOOD ALL THE SPARK PLUGS ARE ON RIGHT BUT MY DISTRIBUTOR ONLY LINES UP WITH ONE BOLT SINCE IM RUNNING AN OBD1 HARNESS AND P28 ECU! COULD THAT DISTRIBUTOR NOT LINING UP GOOD WITH ALL THE OTHER HOLES BE MY PROBLEM OR WHAT DISTRIBUTOR DO I NEED! SOME PEOPLE HAVE TOLD ME TO RUN A NON VTEC DISTRIBUTOR N IT WILL WORK FINE BUT WONT THAT AFFECT VTEC ITSELF OR TIMING!! I DUNNO MUCH ABOUT CARS BUT I KNOW PEOPLE IN HERE DO SO LEMME KNOW WHAT U GUYS THINK OR WHAT SHOULD I CHECK FOR!!
