Default B swap... radiator hose question...

Im getting ready to order a b16a from a 92-95 SiR for a swap in my 94 dx hatch. im also putting in an aftermarket godspeed aluminum radiator (which shouldnt change the scenario, actually). Will stock hoses have suitable length and i.d. to fit the new motor? Im ordering new hoses, just bc i wanted to put red hoses on. I wasnt sure if i should buy regular ones for my car, or if i need a different hoses.

Those will fit perfect, and for the most part a hose is a hose.

okay, i wasnt sure if like the i.d. would be different from the o.d. on the radiator and id have a whole "clamp it tight" issue. i wanna try to put this hatch project together without any ghetto rigging involved.

Make sure you get a radiator designed for a B16 and those hoses will work just fine.
