Upper radiator hose for B18C5 EK?
I have a USDM 98 ITR motor in my 97 Civic EX, with the stock half-size radiator.
I originally had the D16Y8 in there, then switched to a GSR motor and used 99-00 Si hoses.
In February, I put in the ITR motor and noticed that the water neck for the ITR head comes out at a 45 degree angle off the head, instead of the straight hose coming off my old GSR's head.
The 99-00 Si hose didn't seem to fit for some reason, so I used the stock ITR upper hose...and it looks ridiculous (i.e. ready to burst from the angle it's at):
Which hose SHOULD I be using for a B18C5 EK?

LOL, my last ramhorn manifold had horrible WG placement, and I was in a rush.
