Default Stock short radiator or upgrade to long radiator b16a2 swap in 93 EX??

Stock short radiator or long radiator b16a2 swap in 93 EX?? My friend has no AC so what would be better short or long and what applications bolt right on?? Remember no AC so he has room for it! Will it run any cooler with a long radiator? Thanks

idk about whether or not it will keep it cooler so ican't help u there. i was using my stock radiator ('92 civic hb dx) with my b16 and it worked fine. now im using a radiator off a 99-00 Si and it works just as well. it's just a little bit thicker and had a little bit bigger inlet and outlet for the hose. i don't think it would be worth the effort to use a long rad. but that's just me.

a full size radiator is completely useless, stick with teh half size, but your going to need one with the bungs large enough for a dohc so your gonna need the 99-00 civic rad, itll fit no probs. im using a half size with my h22 and it handles it fine.
