Default replacing radiator hoses ?

What model car and year hoses should i get if it a 95 B18B motor into a 94 Civic Hatch? I need upper and lower hoses? Can i just pick a set of 94 DX radiator hoses at Auto Zone or Do i need to get the LS hoses.

The problems is when my sister purchase the car it was fine. But when i changed her radiator i notice the lower hose gotta big melt spot where it touches the brace or the body frame. And thats where the leak start from. I dont know if i gotta get a skinner hose or different model lower radiator hoses?

Please share what you guys used on your LS swap into a EG?

Use the LS hoses, they are a larger diameter hose, the regular civic hoses wont work, just use a screw clamp on the radiator end, remember not too tight it's plastic.
