A question about hoses

So I am getting ready to do a semi complete overhaul of the hoses in an evo. Focusing mainly on the cooling system right now, My question is this what hose should I buy I am getting russel lines and fittings for my dual catch can assembly and would like to stick with them? so what size is the radiator hose the leads to the radiator over flow unit.

Thanks in adcance also Jegs.com has russel components pretty cheap

Ummm, the overflow line is tiny, not sure of exact size, but it's damn small.

What's the point of replacing hoses that are 2 yrs old?

I've got a question about cooling hoses. The Upper hose...Does a company make a Metal upper hose for when i install my header's?

Bought the Invidia header's and they touch my upper rad hose, any fixes for this?
Was thinking about designing my own metal piping.
