Default h22a swap from 91 accord ac compressor pulley doesn't line up ?

I'm installing a second engine after the first one was junk. When installing the first one, my accord ac compressor lined up fine but for some reason this one doesn't line up pulley to crank pulley to alternator pulley. The ac compressor pulley is off by three or four inches to the left, nevermind that I bent the lower subframe to the point that I will have to get a new frame and can't clear the subframe to get the compressor onto the studs from the block.. I'm gonna have to leave ac off for the time being and get a belt for only the crank and the alternator, but I'm wondering why the ac compressor is off by almost three inches or four inches. This thing's got me scared shitless from the fact that maybe the block isn't an h22 but it has a clear stamp on it with the serial number. I got this engine from attarco and I've only heard good things from them.

Is this engine something else or what?

LOL or I could just use the bracket for the ac which moves it into position. I forgot it had a bracket.

Mods, please delete this useless thread before anyone sees it. Thanks. lol

lol, no, everything is fine. What I was saying is that I didn't realize Iforgot for a moment that I needed to use the bracket to secure the compressor to it. I've been so worried that I got a good engine this time that I forgot to grab the bracket and mount that first then mount the compressor to the bracket. The compressor itself looks like it should go right onto the block which is why it looked like it was off by two inches from the crank pulley and alternator belt line of sight. The bracket moves the compressor into correct position with the crank and alternator pulley's.
