The LS swap radiators have both upper and lower hoses on the passenger side otherwise you end up with a long and goofy looking upper hose to get to the driver's side.

I just searched Google for GM Gbody LS swap radiator, you can go to Summit and do the same thing just make sure along with your car info you click on engine swap and hit LS.
There are many brands of radiators offered for this swap so I would take some time and do some research and even try other forums and see what has worked for people and look at reviews, pricing etc. before jumping on the first one you see.

I have a direct fit Champion radiator in my Regal for the 307 the size on that is:
Core Dimensions: 17" (H) x 26-1/4" (W)
Overall Dimensions: 18-1/4" (H) x 31-5/8" (W)
As you can see it fits well for my application as far as size but not set up for an LS.
