Default heater hose clearance for B18C1 swap into 5th gen hb

For those with GSR swaps in your civics:

Does your heater hose come real close the the throttle body? I think my heater hose almost gets in the way of the intake tube. I don't have a pic to describe what I'm talkin about but I'm sure those with swaps know what I mean... I know that the GSR intake manifolds sit a lot lower than the other B-series motors.

Can they be moved?

I don't have a problem either, but I made my own heater hoses.

I'll try to snap some pics... I recall that the intake tube is actually touching the heater hose coming out of the firewall. Inless the spigot on the firewall is bent up accidently during the swap. I'll check it out...

Thanks...
