Default Need Show Quality Radiator&Heater Hose Clamps

What I need is basically what I've seen Steve20000SS use. Looks to be polished hose clamps that completeley cover where the hose connection occurs - not the band clamps.

Where did you get them and what size..

Thanks

They were "Earl's" hose clamps. Quite a variety of sizes, a little tricky working with standard sized clamps to fit metric lines.

Andy, you still have that reciept I sent you for yours??

I seem to remember 18's and 22's but its fuzzy and I cant remember how many.. you need 4 total but they are not all the same sizes.. (T-stat one is BIGGER than the rest)..

Maybe Chris (bluebeast) can look on the bags for his and tell us since they are not installed yet

So what about the hoses you had them connected to? Where did you get those and what sizes?
I really liked the look of the braided radiator hoses and clamps...

These are about the cleanest looking clamps you'll come across. If you want something more "low key" Gates makes a heat shrink tubing style hose clamp.

Radiator hose were just cleaned up factory ones.. too hard to get braided to work for them due to the routing (bends)..

The other ones were custom fabricated at great expense Any problem can be solved it you throw enough $$$ at it..

can someone tell me where each of these go? I take you have to remove the hoses and slide these on? Or will they wrap around the hose then clamp down. I just dont feel like pullin my water pump hoses off and leaking everywhere

what size ones are needed for say the line from the TB to the valve colver?
