Default Optispark cap Swap?

Guys
will the opti2 cap (vented style) fit on the opti1 non-vented style?
I have a 93 original opti - appears to have gone bad...can I just replace the cap for a vented style or are the units that different when it comes to the cap....has anyone tried this?
Thanks

Jim;
You could always get a MSD cap and rotor. Comes with the hoses, fittings and good directions. That's what I'm planning to do on my 93.
