the crv bracket is the same as the delsol dohc vtec compressor but cost about half as much, the tensioner you can get at autozone or honda or other parts stores

dude I told you to get the crv bracket man, the crv has a civic compressor on a b series block, or you can pay twice as much for a del sol dohc cam vtec bracket, the si is different and so is the integra
