Default B18 into EG with A/C: easiest way to keep my A/C?

Hello,

I just bought a 94 DX hatch with a blown motor. I'm hesitating between swapping in a B18B1 or a D16Y8. I'm trying to keep it really low budget.

The car now has functional A/C. Is there a way to keep this with a B18 without buying any brackets, i.e., using only those that came with the B18 or D15?

Also, I have an A/C compressor that I removed from my 2000 Si. Would that make it easier to keep A/C with a B-series swap?

Thanks.

The easiest way to do it, is to buy a B16 (delSol B16) A/C bracket. Other than that, your stock A/C compressor's 4 bolts will NOT bolt up properly to the B18 block.
