I been searching and nothing has helped. I just did a gsr swap in to my 98 civic. My problem is the metal tube under the intake manifold. I think it was the heater hose outlet? I was wondering can i remove that and use my stock heater hose and would it be able to reach it? anyone who done this swap could give me some insight?

#4,5

 

its not that expensive.. just go to a local autozone store and ask for radiator upper hose for a integra Gsr... its only like $5. I wouldn't trust reusing the stock civic hoses because it needs to be bent in order for it to work properly. Besides you should just replace the hoses while your at it.

tips: dont cut corners.. do everything legit. Including replacing the fuel line for a longer or properly fitted one.. thats super important.

 

it's not the radiator hose. im asking about the heater outlet hose. on the back of the block under the intake manifold. in the above link it's part #4,5 i am asking about. just to be clear.

 

# 5 looks like a metal hose and # 4 you can use a regular heater house from the auto part store

 

heres a better picture..

again you should just use the correct hoses for that.. like I said dont cut corners to save money..
that looks like the hose that goes to the firewall.. in most swaps you will need to replace that with the correct bent hose..

 

alright looks good. thanks guy i'll head to the auto part store. i don't cheap out on simple things as a hose.
