Hey guys im about to buy a del sol vtec ac bracket for my b16 swap in my 5th gen hach, so i can retain the stock d-series ac compressor. Will the idler pulley off of the d-series work with the del sol bracket? I know the rubber mount will, but i wasn't sure about that.
TIA

 

bump, does anyone know?

 

bump, i need to know guys help me out

 

Use the civic compressor with a del sol DOHC VTEC (p54) a/c mount. The belt has the same amount of ribs IF it is 94+ crank pulley. Older B16s have the one rib style crank pulleys.

 

i was going to use del sol vtec belts for the ac and alternator, my main question was whether or not i could use the d-series idler pulley with the del sol vtec ac bracket. thanks man.

 

Doing similiar swap and have a p54 on order, will let you know what I see.

 

if ur talking about the tensioner yes they are the same, or can be interchanged

 

thanks alot, i have heard different things about whether the tensioner can be used off the d-series, does anyone have personal experience doing this?

 

bump

 

up

 

ill have to say no on this one. Seams that i had to use the one off a b series due to the d not fitting. But mine is a 97 with a b20 a/c bracket. Should work in your case and it is 1/2 the price on the p54, stamp on b20 bracket was p7j. It has been a year since the swap so i dont know if this is corect, might have used the idler pully off the b20 just cause I had it.

 

im a bit confused here. did you put a p7j bracket on a b16? sorry for the confusion

 

bump. will the tensioner work?

 

??????????????

 

I ordered a P54 bracket, it came with the idler pulley and mount, for 92 civic si B18C5 motor swap. If in doubt swap it out!
