drewkuch Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I went to mount my 1.5 liter stock distributor on my 1.6 liter vtech head and the mounting brackets are different. I can get 2 brackets to line up, but not the 3rd. I wanted to know if i can just make a bracket to secure the 3rd bolt, or is the 1.5 distributor totally different than the 1.6 liter vtec distributor? why? thanks! drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my car running with the 1.5 distributor, just with one bolt holding it to the head and i had to mount a new bracket on it to make the difference for the timing. Runs, but its a little rough, so i'll try the new 1.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
