Default A/c in crx with b16

So i have a b16 in my crx. if i have the b series a/c bracket and a b series a/c compressor, both are off a 97 GSR. can i hook up my stock crx a/c lines and have a/c?

thanks for the help.

Not without modification. You need an a/c conversion bracket to fit a d-series a/c compressor in a b-series swapped 88-91 civic/crx

if you woulda tried this out before asking you woulda seen that no..it wont work. the stock ac lines from the rex wont fit the new compressor. as stated you need the swap bracket to fit the d series compressor on the b series block.

well the compressor ends will yes. but they will be the wrong length/size... custom ac lines could be possibly made, but the ac swap bracket is the easiest route

I'd say, go to the local pick-n-pull and see if they all work....free of charge! Well, maybe $2.
