American spec dizzy on Euro spec civic?? HELP!

By JangoFeet08
- Mon Feb 06, 2012 4:01 pm #293515 Can I use an american spec distributor on my D13B2 engine?
It's from a european spec civic. 1992 EG with the carb engine.
I'm trying to order from Amazon.. I've found a few dizzys that look just like the one on my car, but I want to be sure before I order.

Any clues?

If you need more info, lemme know and I'll try to get it!

So far, I can only find ones sold my german sites and they wont accept a US billing address. I live in Germany, so I have a german shipping address, but my billing address HAS to be US...

Kind of in a bind..

Checked the local junkyards, and they dont have one with my engine..
I'll keep looking.

Plus, there must be auto parts stores that you can go to in person, and avoid buying online altogether.
