Do you need ac bracket for b16 swap if your not installing ac?
do you need ac braket if your not installing ac? Now I know you have to change the rear mount and driver side mount bracket. Do you just use the brackets that come on the b16 with the rest of the stock mounts?

You do still need the mount because it mounts to the chassis to hold up the motor. It's referred to as a "vibration mount". But yes it does still need to be there. Some people buy the jdm aluminum mount to save a few lbs but I'm not really too bothered by a few extra lbs.

Ummm just WHAT vibration mount you talking about? My B16 A/C bracket only holds the A/C compressor.

The bolt coming from the ac mount that goes into the lower vibration mount on the drivers side on the bottom of the frame.
