Doing that just so you don't have the line running to the radiator?

Correct it will be easier and look better instead of trying to run another hose past the turbos.

I had a similar issue when I swapped out my radiator. I searched and found "LS1 upper radiator hose tee/bleeder" You just cut your upper radiator hose place in between the halves, it has a sight glass and a barbed fitting that runs to your steam vent on the heads. If you need more info or the link pm me.
