I have a del sol s with a b18c1 swap, what upper radiator hose should I use?

 

any upper radiator hose from a 94-01 integra gsr would work.

 

do you know if anyone makes a hose that is reduced to fit the del sol radiator? I keep damaging my hoses because I have to tighten the radiator side too much because the hose is so much bigger than the inlet for the radiator.

 

buy a dual core radiator... your motor will be much happier with you.

 

^^^Exactly, you will keep cooler temps with the GSR, especially with the hot summer months coming up and the fact you are in AZ.

 

what radiator will fit and also have the right size inlet?

 

if im not mistaken one of the dohc neons hose fits perfectly

cut a piece of an old radiator hose off, and sandwhich it between the clamp and the new hose. it'll reduce some of the pinching effect of using a large hose with a small outlet

i have a dual core radiator, but the inlet/outlets are still the same size as my stock CX

integra will have the correct size. i can only assume that the dual core for a delsol doch vtec will have the correct size also. fluidyne makes a narrow dual core with larger outlets (teg size) also.

 

the GSR radiator hose worked just fine on my del sol. just had to go to the auto part store and buy the screw down type of clamp instead of the shitty honda clamps.

 

thats because you need the dual core radiator made for the del sol VTEC. The inlets/outlets are the right size.

 

Well, I guess I am getting a fluidyne radiator(found out my radiator is cracked).
