Default B18c into EF si..... which AC bracket will work?

I might just be keeping AC.... I highly doubt it though

But I just wanted to know if I were to keep my ac with my B18c swap with ac bracket will work with our AC system? I know the EG can use a Delsol bracket....

hasport or another option.

Place Racing has a bracket too. I believe you can use a Honda bracket (not sure which one) but you have to modify it I believe.

you have to use a place racing or hasport bracket.....

with place racing it only works with the SANDEN compressor

if youve got a Matsushita.....your only option is Hasport bracket(works for both)

you cannot use any stock brackets as it makes the compressor sit tooooo low and itll hit the crossmember regardless(even if youve got a z10 or jimfab)

youll probably also want to get a slim fan as well.....

oh yeah im talking from Experience

i gots one, good stuff. i even cracked mine and they sent me a new one. Fitment is tight. but it fits.
You don't need slim fans, but if you got the $ I'd go ahead and get a pair for the thing.

like everyone has said, only the hasport bracket will work for you. another thing to think about is clearance between the exhaust manifold and the a/c condensor. i have a b20 in crx (basically the same as ef w/ b18) running a stock honda b16 manifold and it's really tight. the stock heat shield won't fit. if you run jdm 4-1 headers you might have issues with this.
