They generally go to the coolant reserve if there is no cap on the radiator. Maybe one outgoing is to take out the air of the system,, for oem heated carb(s), I don't know... Guys here just plug them with copper caps. They keep the outgoing lines that are used and plug the other ones.

You can find some in hardware store, plumbing section. Used to plug the end of unused copper pipes. You can also use a rubber hose you block with something. The easiest way can be to plug a rubber hose from one small outgoing to the other. Did you have a picture of your radiator? It will be easier to figure the best way to do it. The third main outgoing that is not used might be enough large to be plug with a copper cap. Find a copper cap that fits pretty tight on the outgoing. They look like this and aren't expensive: i188.photobucket.com/albums/z11/brucepick/Civic%20Block%20Heater/CopperCap.jpg

There are some inline ones that are pretty simple to instal and tune. They are adjustable at that.
