Default B20 into a 97 Sedan

I was just wondering what I would all need to do this swap, I once heard I can use the same trans. mount as the stock one, but cant use the stock b20 tranny. will I need a gsr or b16 trans? what obd is a b20a5? also wich axles will I have to use, can I use 90-93 integra ones? also; will I be able to keep my AC? if so what will I need for that? will a mount out of a SI work?

Why choose that motor? If you answer that question you might also find the answers to all your other questions. Some motors are less hassel.

you can use 94-00 gsr/Ls/itr tranny or b16 hydro tranny. you will need 3 of the 5 mounts and retain 2 of them.

The B20A5 you are talking about comes from a 1988-91 Prelude and is nothing like the B20B/Z found in the CRV. If you want to do this swap (God help you if you do) it will require a lot of custom work which will completely negate the gains... If you are looking to do a B20 swap, get yourself a B20B or B20Z found in the CRV.
