Icon3 Ac Bracket and Compressor for B16 Eg Question URGENT

I have searched and I know this has been covered many times but I cannot find a clear answer.
I have a b16 swapped eg and want to install ac but I do not know which bracket/compressor combo I need.

- Brackets -
1. If I want to use a b series compressor, which bracket do I need?
2. If I want to use a d series compressor which bracket do I need?

- Compressor -
1. If I use the b series compressor, which lines will be different from the stock eg lines?
2. If I use the d series compressor will I be able to use all stock lines and ONLY have to change brackets?

Im about to head to the junkyard in a couple hours so any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

Josh

You'll need a bracket for a '94 - '97 Del Sol VTEC good luck finding one in a junkyard. '97 - '01 CR-V bracket works too but it may cause clearance issues with the P/S bracket on a B16A due to the shorter deck height. Either one of those two brackets will let you use a D-series A/C compressor, using a B-series compressor involves using B-series lines IIRC.

So if im not running P/S I should have no trouble running the crv bracket? And what code will be on the crv bracket? (PJ7 or P54)?

Don't believe so. I have one here, if I can find a D-series compressor i'll try to see if it fits tommorrow, almost positive it doesn't though.

The 94-97 del sol bracket that will work has the code p54... The crv bracket that will work has the code p7j

*edit* both of those will work with your d series compressor..
