Default B16A into 91 hatch.. got a few questions

I'm getting a 91 DX hatch and going to put a B16A swap into it. I want to know what mount kit to use (Hasport, HCP, Place Racing, etc.) and what bracket to use to be able to keep a/c functional. I want to be fast, but not at the expense of sweating all through the summer. Also any tips on this swap will be greatly appreciated.

Get rid of the A/C. I believe hasport makes a kit that allows you to keep the a/c, but really whats the point?

As for mounts....Id go with Totem Motorsports mounts, awsome mounts. Check out

then go to products.

The point is... I don't want to take a shower, get dressed, go to the mall and be all sweaty and musty before I even get there.. all because I wanted to gain 2-5 hp. Fonk that!!! I'll make up for that lost hp somewhere else! I gotta have a/c.. it gets hot as hell down here in South Cackalack! Besides, I plan on making enough hp that a 2-5 hp loss due to a/c won't matter anyway. This car is gonna be my daily driver, and my only car for a while.

I hear ya!! I had a/c in my EF w/ a b16a. It pretty easy to do as long as the pr3 bracket comes with the b16. if it does 2 of the bolts will line and a 3rd will need a washer or two but unless you want all 4 bolts to hold it in you dont need an expensive adapter
