I have a 99 civic lx with a d16y7 and I am doing and obd2 b16 swap....will i be able to use the lx radiator when I do the swap or will I have to upgrade to an ex or si radiator? I was told mine would be fine but I wanted to check for sure. Thanks for the help.

 

Stock D-series rad will work fine, its all i've used doing B-series swaps, you will need to use adjustable gear style hose clamps though to squeeze the larger B-series rad hoses onto the smaller D-series water necks.

 

^^^ What he said.

 

Sweet, thank you guys so much....I just don't want to run into any problems when I swap the motor. I just want to have everything ready to put it in the car and be done...lol. It won't go that way anyay...lmao.

 

If you go to advance they should sell and adapter peice that will let you go from the b-series to the d-series size radiator hose, or you could do what the other guys said.
both will work.

 

Do you know what it is called? That would make things easier...thanks for the idea.
