You can use a dseries ac bracket. You can only bolt in 3 of the 4 bolts but its get er done status and works fine. I wouldnt go taking it to 8200 rpms with the A/C on but besides that it works just fine. That way you can use all your civic lines, etc. I've got an idea, how about posting a good pic of your current engine bay. We can help better that way. Or take it to CMS, if your feeling to lazy to take a pic.

Get the d series compressor and the p54 del sol vtec bracket. We don't do A/C work at CMS.

On my old JRSC'd LS hatch, only 2 of the sohc compressor bolts fit into the b-series a/c bracket, still worked fine though..
