I've installed the GeeBee C-hose and breather hose on my 79. Nice, snug fit, perfect lengths and great clamps.
Now ... about that S-boot ... |
these hoses are not supposed to be clamped. the reason for no clamps is to allow the hose to blow off in the event of a backfire. guy's hoses fit very well and should need clamps anyhow, but i recommend no clamps.

| He did not reproduce them. He is saying he could reproduce them out of silicone. My understanding is if you use the clamps and you have a backfire you can kiss your AFM goodbye. |

Were you missing a "not", Scott?
I guess that all that is really needed to handle a backfire is to have at least one hose connection not clamped.

I just got the same two hoses as pictured above in the mail, and installed them. They are an amazing fit around the ends. The lower L shaped one was a little long though. It will serve it's purpose just fine! It'll probably last longer than my engine too

If they were clamped and there was a back fire, would there be considerable damage?

Probably not. Some hoses might get damaged.

Probably not. Some hoses might get damaged. |
it is the airflow metre that can get damaged. if the hose blows in a backfire off the AFM flap will not deflect as explosively, this is why the big hoses are not meant to be clamped.
