Default does anyone have problems with the intake on this swap

i have a 1994 cx and swapped a b16SIR II motor into it with integra mounts. Im using a cheap ebay cold intake made for the cx it works its a cold air intake but it barely clears the fuel line that goes from fuel filter to fuel rail.. anyone else have this problems??

thanks

are you using the B16a fuel line or the cx one. if using the cx one it is not the right length. you need a dohc vtec motor one.

that is strange it should fit if using the bseries line. do you have a pic of the intake on the motor? that might shed some light on the situation

here are two pics

this is a 1994 cx civic with a b16 w/ITR manifold. you can see the fuel line right underneath the intake.. i had to twist the intake tube up so that it wouldnt rub right against the fuel line.. Is that normal??? thanks

possibly that fuel line is not the right one to use and maybe a gsr one is longer. it seems like even if you use a stock intake hose it won't clear
