90-93 Integra Radiator in 91 CRX... Clearance for A/C???
I built a 91 CRX DX for my fiance about 2 years ago. I am in the process of getting a new radiator and I've decided to go with the OEM style replacement 90-93 Integra one after reading various posts. The car has a 96 B18B1 engine with 92 GSR YS1 tranny using HASport billet mounts and A/C with the stock D series compressor and HASport A/C bracket.
The mounts set the motor really close to the front which made putting the A/C in a little more challenging than expected. I had to remove the A/C fan shroud for clearance and this is with the stock LS header. I'm just wondering if anyone had this type of setup and are using the 90-93 Integra radiator and how tight the clearance is? I'd like to avoid buying a slim style fan if possible.

If you're using HaSport mounts and think there's no room up front, wait until you use other mounts like Place Racing which tip the motor forward!
I ran my stock A/C system using HaSports adapter plate using a 90-93 Integra Radiatior just fine. My stock B17 exhaust manifold came pretty dang close to the A/C lines.
I dont think the FAT stock A/C FAN would work. I was using the stock header with HaSport mounts and the clearance was tight. You may need to splurge on a SLIM FAN.
