Hi


I'm doing a engine swap. D16Y to B18c obd1---Car is 1996 Honda civic EK, NZ New, sohc vtec, manual

How can i install my factory d series air conditioning stuff to the b18c motor?

What other options are possible to keep a/c? if there is too much involved i will rip it out.. I've just heard people keeping their a/c in their EK with a b18c swap

Thanks

Doing this swap right now and I know need the PS bracket as well as the AC bracket. Need to know if I will need to get new PS and AC pump with the B16 brackets or will they work?

Look up the part numbers on both cars, should be able to figure it out from there.

PS Lower Bracket
LS/GSR/ITR(Including B16) = P54

PS Upper Bracket (Head specific)
LS (B18B/B20) = P54
GSR= P72
ITR/B16 = P30

96-98 will require 94-97 Integra PS Pump
99-00 will require EM1 or 98-01 Integra PS Pump

If B18B/B20 swap, sourcing a CRV Power steering bracket is bolt on and you can reuse the civic PS pump.

A/C Bracket, you can buy from a 93-97 Del Sol Si Vtec (B16 Only), 99-00 EM1, or 98-01 CRV. A/C compressor will bolt right on.

Thanks for the info... Sadly I have 99 EX and swapping in a B16. Had the donor had the brackets it would have made the swap easier. And I could have matched them up to see if the pumps worked as they are both off the car right now.
