This question does not fully make sense. ff14SB is a different force
field than ff99SB. The former is significantly newer (~8 years newer), and
has been substantially improved in many regards.
If you are using antechamber and converting the result to GROMACS, I would
suggest just doing the whole system in Amber and converting the prmtop and
inpcrd files to a GROMACS topology and gro file. You can do this with
ParmEd if you want to.
