Hey guys, post here so please be gentle.

Just completed a b20b swap and we got the car running and idling fine using obd0, stock b18a1 intake manifold and all the other good stuff.

I've looked all over the internet for some type of solution but haven't found anything. So, here's my problem the coolant hose that runs down out of my iacv can't connect to the b20 thermostat as there is no nipple to connect to. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Also the hose I'm talking about is hose number 6 in this diagram near the bottom of the page.

Thank you!!!

 

you forgot the page link/pic I'm not sure which hose you're referring too.

Sorry for that! I'm kind of an idiot.

 

Can't connect as in too short ? get a longer hose when I swapped my GSR intake manifold out some of the coolant hoses were to short and required extending(replacing). That's my guess at what's happening.

 

The connections are not too short, the problem is on the b20 thermostat there is no nipple to plug into unlike on the b18a thermostat.
