Ernest,
On the Pegasus Racing site they recommend using the Oetiker clamp I'm
assuming their product "Textile Reinforced High Temperature Hose" is the
same type hose you're talking about.

In their product description, it says, "To secure this hose to a barbed
fitting, we recommend Oetiker clamps (part #3295-Size). These maintain
proper tension after many heating and cooling cycles, which standard
hose clamps cannot."  Of course Lynn may have a racer's secret that
would work better.

Lynn, do you think this would be compatible with the heat shrinkable
hose clamps that Tracy has been sporting, or would the two defeat one
another?  If it works on the 'chinese finger lock' principle, I'm
thinking that the wide band might keep the hose from stretching enough
to lock down.
