Question 5.3 Swap w/Stock Radiator.....Which Hoses?

Hey guys, basically I just need to know if a set of stock upper and lower radiator hoses from the intended app will work with my truck stock type of radiator.

I don't have my radiator yet (on its way from another member).

More or less I am just worried about the inlet/outlet sizes on my stock radiator VS the size of the hoses.

I know there have been more than a few of you that have swapped in a 4.8/5.3/6.0 truck LSx in your own trucks and have been down this road before.

Thanks guys!!!

I used the factory 5.3 hoses. You have to lube them a bit to make them slip on the rad outlets, but it works.
