Question D16 swap to B16A Clutch Hose Too Short

So I'm swapping my '97 civic's D16 for a '96-'98 B16A out of an SIR II but the stock hydraulic clutch line is too short. Any ideas on what I should use?

welcome to the forum. i believe the hyd clutch line uses the same as the brake fluid, so take the short line and see if you might be able to match the ends to a longer brake hose with the proper fittings. auto parts place has different length lines in stock.

Okay. So I should be able to take the stock fitting off and just run the "brake line" with them on?

yes take your short clutch line to the auto parts place and see if they have longer lines with the same end fittings. replace same for same but longer.
