Default what radiator hose to use with a ef and a eg radiator setup??

i recently put a eg radiator custom in my ef hatch to clear my greddy setup.. i have a etd traction bar, and cut out the lower stock rad mount and i made custom clamps for the traction bar to the radiator so its lower and sits nie and clears the hood, now my problem is i got blue obx radiator hoses for my ef while back and now the botom hose is short.. do i just stretch it and make it fit and clamp it or get a new hose? if i have to i dont mind getin oem black hoses for now. what car has a longer bottom hose that will fit for my setup?? can anyone help me? or what other options do i have??? please someone help thanks in advanced fellow ef'ers

maybe try a prelude or accord hose. its a little bit bigger but with an american style clamp it should fit fine. i have a prelude hose on my h22 crx and its bigger than the radiator but seals just fine when tightened.

Hmm i might have to look into that, i might just bring my stock hose to like pepboys or autozone and just get a bunch of hoses and see what ones are longer and have the same house diameter as ny stock one but anyone else can help let me know what they did thanks.
