SiR831

I'm installing a 99 B16a2 in a 98 civic coupe and i had a some ?'s. Do i use Si radiator and heater hoses? My friend wants to retain the AC and power steering. I heard i can reuse the sohc Compressor bracket with idler pulley on the Si motor? Or do i have to use Si compressor bracket? Do i use Si drive belts for power steering and AC? Is the sohc throttle cable reusable. Any help is appreciatted. Tyring to get the info so i can have the parts ready for this weekend Thanks

I installed a b16a into my del sol si (d16), and used the radiator from that and works fine, no problems whatsoever. The dohc hoses are larger so you'll probably want to pick some of those up at VIP or NAPA. Same with belts, get everything for b16.

You'll want the dohc ac mount, on the sohc only the 2 top bolts out of the 4 (2 more on the bottom) will fit on dohc engine.

The Si throttle cable can still be used, if it's too short build a bracket to go on the intake manifold to extend it a couple inches, or so the TB will close all the way at idle.

Hope this helps.
