I am putting a 5.3 LS engine and a Griffin radiator into my truck. The Griffin radiator has both coolant inlet and outlet on the passenger side of the vehicle. I'm having a hard time finding the right top hose for this setup. Do any of you know the part number for this hose I need?

Honestly I would get the thing in the vehicle then, plan out what you will need based off of the parts offered from here

Silicon intakes

Then order them up.

IMO it just doesn't pay anymore to deal with premade hoses. Silicone bends and AL or stainless pipe sections work well. The only thing I would advise is to use two hose clamps per connection as the silicone is tough to get seated and keep from leaking, the clamps need to be tight.
 
hope you read up on my rad fitment problems in my 2wd build here or at ls1 .

havent got my hoses yet so keep us up to date on what ya find.
