Filler neck vent hose clamps

[Doppleganger]

I see alot of places that sell the filler neck hoses offer what looks like standard hose clamps for the 1" vent hoses.

Original Wittek clamps are priced according to gold market value, but a few of mine didn't make it. Just debating what to use in their place. On the larger fill necks I'm leaning towards t-bolt clamps. Can get them decent priced and I know they wont leak. Heck - what LMC is selling for them also looks like a standard hose clamp.

Just wondering what anyone else used.

It's the filler neck so it's only going to leak when you fill it up. I've learned once you find a good source locally for hose clamps, stick with them. I picked up a multi-pack at autozone, and half of them liked to hop threads quicker than others.

this site has some radiator and heater hose clamps , not sure if they will work , without taking measurements. But I am sure there cheaper than a lot of other sources . Quality....? I’ve never tried them yet !

Gates T-bolts are available from Rock in 10pks for $33. I need 8, so meh.

I found OE style Wittek 1-1/16 for the vent hoses on a Ford resto site for $18/10pk. Need 8 of them too.

$50 for hose clamps sounds nuts but I only want to do this once.

Go to plumbing supply house and get clamps.
