if its OBD0 you will need not only the dizzy, but the ECU as well.

Distributor ecu and injectors. Obdo injectors use a resistor box

unless, you are converting you car to obd0, just use your d16z6 injectors and a p06 ecu, preferably chipped.
pretty sure a d15b7 distributor will bolt up and plug into to your obd1 harnesss, the z6 one has a unique bolt pattern.
check to see if the z6 intake manifold bolts up, it will save you some trouble if it does.
the driverside motor mount might need to be swapped from the z6.
pretty sure a d15b7 distributor will bolt right up and plug into to your obd1 harnesss, the z6 one has a unique bolt pattern.

All the dohc zc's I've seen have there own distinct distributor bolt pattern, the only thing they match up with us spec is a d16a1 and there only Obdo,


You will need a jdm dohc zc distributor I think gen 2 or 3 to use your obd1
