Clamps for the intake?

Where can I get some clamps for the intake, the clamps that hold the cai to the maf and the maf to the elbow, elbow to the throttle body.... I have removed my elbow and maf alot the last few weeks and have almost stripped a couple of the screws that tighten the clamps. I want some that look good too. Anyone know where I can get em, went to autozone and they had some clamps but they were to small.

I would say take off the clamps you need to replace, and go to a hardware store. Find some that will match you're size, and they should work just as good.

Exactly, the hardware store - I rounded up a slew of them one day, various sizes just incase. Very handy. They're not too expensive, and best of all no shipping, no waiting

There is a upgraded clamp, a "T" bolt style...that's not the proper name though. They incorporate a bolt to clamp the band instead of a screw catching the sides of the clamp. They have a better holding force and stand up better to multiple installs. You can get them through a good hardware store (big selection) or by the internet via McMastercarr.com

Clamps

Go to most any diesel truck parts and you can get the stainless "T" bolt clamps of most any size.
