I'd go to Napa and have them get you some constant torque clamps. Just measure the OD of what you're putting them on. That's where I got mine for my twins setup. Probably have to order them though.

They are 3.25" x 3" boots so your clamps should be a 1/4" to 1/2" larger due to the extra thickness of the hose. I also remember reading that some of the 7.3 powerstroke intercoolers have 3.25"x3" boot on one side with a 3"x3" boot on the other so you will want to measure before ordering.

I've used some of silicone intake clamps for my intake piping and I'm not a fan how they use a 10mm nut instead of a 7/16". I find it's a waste of time when you have to swap sockets since you can find usa made clamps for about $1 more per clamp.

Also if you need all the boots as well, I bought a kit from these guys when I did my swap. They use a nice heavy duty hose for not too bad of a price.

I just recently had one of their T-clamps snap on me.....Wasn't very happy. Luckily I had a few OEM clamps floating around to get me back up and running.
