Default Help with b18b1 ac compressor

Hi I'm new here let me start off by saying I have a 96 ex with a b18b1 swap I bought the car from a friend. There is a ac compressor on the car but its not hooked up and here in MS it gets hotter than hell. So I'm trying to get my ac working. I've posted a picture of the compressor on the car I don't know it I should put a vacuum on it and use it or buy another. My lines don't match up to the compressor. So my question is can someone tell me what I need to do to get my ac running thanks to everyone in advance

Probably swapped a bseries ac into the car, and you still got dseries lines.

So what do I need to tell the parts ppl to get the correct lines? Sorry I'm not a noob I've just never dealt with ac before except for charging

Also I couldn't figure out how to post the picture so the link under the original post is a link to a picture of the compressor

Someone will have to chime in on if the lines can be changed, but my answer would be to get a dseries compressor with either a crv or a del sol dohc ac bracket, that way your lines would fit. There are tons of threads thatll give you the part numbers, the crv bracket is cheaper. You will also need a bseries tensioner.
