- Thu Feb 04, 2010 2:16 am #173057 d16z6, d16z1, jdm b15b all have the same bolt pattern.
D15b7, d16y7, d16y8 all have the same bolt pattern.

OBD2 and obd1 have different plugs.

The d16y5 is different from all other distributors because of extra electronics on the inside.

So no yours will not bolt up to each other's heads properly, but they will plug in to the harness okay.

What he is trying to say was the flux compacitor & the additional ionic neutron copacitors make it different from all the others.... :hehe: jk I have no idea!


What about the VX distributer to the D16z6??

- Sun Feb 07, 2010 4:33 am #173843 to answer the original question, the z6 distributor will 'fit' a b7 head but you will never be able to set the ignition timing because the mounting bolt holes don't allow it to rotate far enough.
