Anyone using stock radiator on LS swap?

As title states...anyone using stock 67-72 radiator on their LS swap?

If so, what fan you using?
what hoses are you using?

Thanks!

I'm running a stock 4 core radiator with a 2008 5.3l swap with dual dodge Stratus fans from the JY. It took a little work figuring out the right thermostat (180 degree) but the combination is doing VERY well.
