Default Got radiator in...but need help :/

Hey everyone, i have a 1991 honda crx dx with a b16a in it...

i just bought a dual core KOYO radiator for it, but it doesnt fit quite right...I have already beat a little bit on the crossmember and it is deff. starting to fit perfectly, but my question is....IT IS AN EXTREMELY TIGHT FIT for the stock fan for the koyo rad. I was wondering if i should go with a slim fan or try to modify the stock fan for the koyo radiator.

Another question, while there is no fluid in the radiator at the time...i was thinking of getting new hoses to accomodate the b16a better, and to fit the radiator better...do they make hoses that have different size end points on the hose?

thx for the help, i need it
