So I just shipped out our superchargers for rebuild and I have a question.
What size hose clamps are required on the SC'er outlet/inlet hoses? Are they 3"?
Ours had the original, single use clamps on the hoses, so we obviously need to replace with new.
I was thinking of a banded T handle type clamp as opposed to the standard worm style. My only concern is the thickness of the band. I didn't see any dimensions other than circumference.
Boat currently has 177 hours on her and it doesn't appear that these SC'ers have ever been rebuilt. I also noticed there was some oil on the intake sides of the superchargers when I was removing them.
Here's a pic of the SC'ers and the clamps I'm thinking of using.
Any feedback would be great.
