Default Doing a b18b1 swap into a 94 civic. AC Question???

hi,

I have a B18B1 complete swap with AC unit to put into my civic hb. My civic hb has AC too. What should I do? Keep the AC unit that comes with the B18B1 or keep the civic AC unit? Will the AC hoses, belt, and connections be interchangeable? Any thoughts or comments? Thanks

You can still use your A/C compressor off of your EG along with the belts...considering the belt tension can be adjusted. And about the mounting bracket, you can too use the EG's but only 2 of the 4 bolts will line up. If you want to be on the "politically correct" side, use the A/C bracket off of a del Sol DOHC VTEC. There, all 4 bolts will be used.

One other thing. Can I use the LS AC that came with the motor?

Thanks

if you get the p54 bracket then you can retain all of your stock a/c system rendering the ls a/c lines un-necessary.
