MAF clamp size.

After a few times of removing the stock airbox the stock MAF clamp has broken on me. After a long day of working on the car I had to remove and reinstall the stock airbox numerous times due to a few problems. Twice the stock clamp screw became unseated and i had to rebend the clamp to make it work. Well now i fear that it is a bigger problem waiting to happen and would like to replace it with a t-bolt clamp.

The clamps come in 3.5, 3.75 and 4" and i am just wondering if anyone know which one to order. I would remove the airbox and measure myself but i am afraid of the clamp breaking and not having a spare on hand.

I did search but could not find any information on the MAF clamp only the IC piping clamps in general.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

This may not be the best answer but just buy one of each. You never know when you need an extra clamp. I have many extra clamps at home that are different sizes and have come in handy many a time.

Well i want to order the t-bolt kit for the IC clamps and it is only $2.60 for an additional one so I figure i might as well go with the t-bolt that way i never have to worry about it again.
