Doesn't matter anyways, after I did the 5 speed swap I noticed no change at all.

Try swaping the one off the Old motor

You are looking at the shape of the Cap. The caps might be different in relation to how the SParkwire gets plugged into it, but the firing order and the inside clearances should be exactly the same if the motor was running. the only thing is you could be 180 deg off, but its not gonna hurt your motor.

my 89 Lx had a Hitachi and the junkyard the DX that i got from Steve (Our PA steve) was a TEC.
