Most of us end up spending time with hoses at the parts store with a tape measure after we've mocked up our end/rad. Without knowing where your engine placement is in the truck, where your rad placement is, where your rad outlets are and what size the rad outlets are - how could we recommend a specific hose?

If you managed to swap the engine already, I guess finding a hose that will fit won't be a big issue?

Not sure if the parts stores in Newfoundland are as well stocked for LS swaps as the ones here in the US

Hopefully someone with a truck can post a pic of what worked well for them. Usually if it works for one it works for others.
