Sorry for all the questions, I need to make a list of what I need from an Integra from a local junkyard. Should I use my stock radiator or pay $75 for the Integra radiator/brackets?

Have you done this swap/seen a cx with a b18b1? I'm not doubting, just wondering because the ex radiator is bigger than the cx and that's just a 0.1L difference.

The half-size radiator works fine. You have nothing to worry about.

Awesome. This will help because this swap is costing a lot more than I thought it would and it's just for a DD/winter car.

Okay, thanks. I'm surprised that little thing can handle a 1.8L

To the guys with the LS in an eg: Can I just use the LS upper and lower hoses or do I have to get a del sol lower?
