Default SWAP QUESTION...Can A/C remain after an engine swap?

When swaping a motor, will A/C be lost (on an EG)? Power steering as well?

don't wanna sound like a broken record, SEARCH!

depends on what engine you go with what you'd need to keep your engine. i'm actually getting power steering ADDED along with my EG swap, and i still need to pick up a P54/P7J bracket to get my a/c working.

If your car originally came with A/C, then yes you can keep it. You just need to get the a/c bracket off another car... i cant remember which....

if you're putting a b series into a 92-00 civic, you need the del sol vtec ac bracket to get the compressor on the block. good luck finding one, your best bet is to go to honda and fork over the 100 some dollars.

i'm wondering if you could just use a regular b series bracket and bolt the compressor half assed. i bet if you can get 2 out of 4 bolts, it will be fine.

You can use the crv p7j bracket also besides the delsol p54 bracket as stated above
