Default major distributor PROBLEM

im having a MAJOR problem finding a distributor to fit my car .......
i have a 1988 civic 4 door ... with a 1999 civic SI (b16 vtec) in it

the car has the 1988 wiring harness ... , the connections for the distributor are .. 2 round connections ,, one large with 5 wires and one small with 2 wires ..

i would think a 1999 honda civic si "dizzy" would work .... but the connections are square unstead of round like i need ...

and the 1988 "dizzy" will not bolt to my b16 . but the connections will match .

i turned the stock dizzy in for a core charge ... soooo its done and gone ... and im lost and have no clue what will fit my car ..


the car has been converted from internal to EXternal coil .... i can order a msd pro cap to make it work ... but i cant find the right dizzy with the correct connections and bolt pattern.. ??????


please help ... PM'S PLEASE .. names Dustin

your first problem is that you have a ob0 wiring harness and an obd2 engine your gonna need a conversion harness from rywire.com with the dizzy conversion harness. so your gonna need a b16 dizzy the stock on or one thats made for it.
