Hose clamp sizes?

[MrMopar440]

I am making an on-line order, and I want to get the right size the first time (for a change). I can't just go down to the "local" parts house without giving up an arm and a leg and having the answer in metric, so.....What size hose clamps do I need for the upper and lower radiator hoses on a 440? Thanks

3 - 28  & 1 - 32

Although I couldn't answer your question with the sizes you needed like Chryco. I had a recent experience with clamps..... stay away from places like aurozone/checkers ect, thier answer is just snug it up tighter - which is not good! I needed some #10's all they stocked was #12's (next closest) When doing (wrong size) clamps they will kink and don't seat properly! I applaud your question. BTW NAPA had the correct clamps!

Thanks for the help. I thought all the clamps were the same size.  OK, now that I know the right sizes - can I get away with 4 of the 28s?  Autozone doesn't carry the 32. I would rather use the right one, and now that I know what to look for, I will also go look at the local German hardware store. Where is the larger one supposed to go?

I think the 28 will be too small on the lower rad hose onto the water pump
