Dizzy=Distributor

The only big engine differences between the 87-80 RX-7's and later models (besides the GSL-SE), is the ignition system and exhaust system.

The older models used a points-type ignition system and a thermal reactor. Newer models used the more standard distributor and a catalytic converter.
