the soch hoses are smaller than dohc hoses and the dohc's will not work with a sohc delsol radiator you have to have a dohc radiator with dohc hoses... i say this with experience

Dangit, I guess the radtiator that was shipped to me was the DOHC one. Cuz my hoses are not going on. You guys think I can just buy the dohc hoses and put them onto my jdm d15b?

Hose clamp is all you need.
<---running a del sol dual core in my EM1. Had to squish down on the hose a bit. Not a huge difference, but enough for the stock clamp to not be able to do it.
Other than that, it fit just fine.
