Electronic dizzy

[sdksjp]

I have replaced my 1700cc ozzy import air cooled engine for a 2ltr air cooled from a T25 with electronic ignition can i use my old dizzy instead because of the electrics are different, it will start, any ideas ?

Ozzy = Australian and dizzy is the distributor, I have noticed that the offset drive is in a different position ie if looking at the drive as a clock face the position is at 12 O,clock the rotor is at 4 O,clock on the electronic distributor but on the 009 Distributor it is at 8 O,clock therefor the timing will be outit looks like i will have to swap drives.
