Here are some splicers and transitional splicers that can help when using a radiator that uses different hose sizes than the LSx:

Does anyone know a part number to a hose that will work from the stock Radiator to the ls1 r what did u all do with the same set up?

I saw a guy on here with an old camaro that just used the stock LS1 camaro upper hose.

For my Nova, i just got a couple 1.5" u-bends cut and formed as needed, then welded it all up and used a couple pieces of straight hose to connect it to the rad and waterpump.

Some trimming may be required

Those fittings shown above will also give you an easy place to put a mech temp sensor and the steam vent which can be handy.

I used goodyear 62426. It was a little smaller than my upper, but I sprayed some WD-40 on and it slid right on.
