Whats up guys...I have a b18b swap into my 2000 civic...and its been damn hot running without AC..with my swap..i was given the b18b AC compressor....is there a way to run AC with my civic condenser without having to invest in a civic Si AC bracket. My idea was to run 2000 civic Si AC hoses and keep the b18b AC bracket....would this work?

Don't be a cheap a$$!

In order to use your Civic compressor on a B motor, you NEED the P54 bracket.

If you want to use the B compressor on the B motor, you'll need the lines swapped and the system recharged.


Either way it's $100.

Just get the Si bracket and do it the right way.

If you dont mind..can you tell me what year is your B18B motor?

here's my $20 solution to your problem.....USE the teg compressor, then buy (junkyard) a HIGH SIDE HOSE from a teg or civic si.....just follow the directions IN THE SECOND PIC!! THE TOP VERSION DOES NOT WORK!

it will cost me more if i decide to invest in an AC bracket...almost 100 bucks for the bracket alone..and then i'll still have to get the AC unit charged....if i go for the AC line..it will cost me 50 bucks...and have to of course get my AC charged...getting the AC line alone is cheaper....
