I don't think any B engined 900s came with electronic ignition (could be wrong, but don't think so). If this is the case, then you'd need to install the hall rotor and sensor from a later 900 distributor into your distributor. This is probably doable, but may need some machining of parts to fit. In addition to the components inside the distributor, you'll need the ignition amp and the coil (the coil is different). So I guess the answer to your question is yes it is possible, but may not be as easy as fitting an aftermarket item. -- Grunff
