i always thought the caps were the same as well.

Maybe you're doing something wrong b/c i've used 93-95 del sol DOHC VTEC distributor caps on a bunch of 92-95 civics with obd1 b16s in them.
Hell i'm even using one on my obd2 gsr distributor.

i've used obd1 caps both b/d series and they are all interchangedable... I can't see why they would be too small..

THIS IS WHY I'VE POSTED THIS QUESTION, I DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, I DON'T REALLY WANT TO BUY ANOTHER DISTRIBUTOR.

This is a very odd one. Makes no sense at all. Can you make out a distributor code anywhere on it?
