Default B18B and AC in a 89 CRX Si?

What would I need to keep the A/C in an '89 CRX Si with a B18B swap? What's the easiest way to do it?

Much Grass seniors...

Is that even possible? If so, I'm gonna get a B18B when I buy my CRX

i've done a b18a swap and kept the a/c in a 88 crx std.only problem was the a/c lines are close to the fans and header,but they do fit with some tweaking...and i used a place racing a/c mount,which was a total pos.it came with 2 stripped bolt holes and the mounting holes for the compressor were tapped crooked.but other than that,a/c is no problem

I have a b17a transplant using hcp mounts and i also have a/c. The a/c fan will fit behind the radiator, its a very close fit between the radidator and the header. I had a/c compressor from my hf motor frabricated on to the b17. I have not had any problems yet.
