Electrical problem
1993 Honda Civic 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

I have done a frankenstien so to speak. I have swaped a head off my 93 1.5 sohc non v-tec and replaced with a 1.6 v-tech head. I thought I had everything ready to go from what little Honda experiance I have. 0 But when I went to reinstall my distribitor It will not line up with the bolt holes. Will my 1.5 distribitor not work ? and what distribitor do I need to track down to make this baby come back to life.???
