Re: 5.3l radiator hose

5.3 in my 67 using a stock 99+ truck upper hose. Its not clean looking. Switching to a camaro water pump might help a little or get a radiator with the inlet and outlet on the passenger side.
I'm using part of my old upper rad hose for a lower with the ls swap.

If you're running a CAI you can route it low and to the drivers side, that helps things look a little cleaner.

I get a lot of compliments on my setup but I think a different radiator would be the best route.
