Hose sizes? I want to get some of the Earl's hose clamps and need to know which sizes to buy.
What are the factory hose sizes for the radiator (two sizes) and heater hoses? I guess I would need to know I.D. and O.D. to be able to pick the clamps I need.
Thanks!

I wish there was a store that had all this stuff in stock that you could go to and play with parts to be sure they work. Wouldn't that be cool? Ordering online is convenient but you can't test fit or get your hands on anything...

But usually you measure the O.D. of something that a hose will fit over to find out what the I.D. of the actual hose will be. Most hoses are an 1/8" thick roughly, which means you add a 1/4" to the I.D. of the hose to get the O.D. of the hose, which is usually a useless fact anyways.
