I was looking at those but will they work with aftermarket uicp and licp? or are they just for stock piping?

I have those with aftermarket LICP and stock UICP. They are pretty broad in range (And not exactly perfect set for all stock anyway).

If you have a NAPA parts store nearby they usually have t-bolt clamps.

I got mine pretty cheap off of Ebay. You just have to know what size you need.

NAPA sells them, but not all stores stock them. Also NAPA is a bit more expensive.

Wrap a string around the area and mark both ends where they cross. Measure the distance between the marks, and divide by 3.14 Then buy a T-bolt clamp that's clamping is within that range. (gotta love math)

Tbolt clamps are only good if you want to ovalize your piping. I use the higher quality ring clamps that dont pinch or leave any marks on rubber.

clamps are clamps and silicone intakes have the best prices for high quality stainless t-bolt clamps.

[EDIT]they had my last purchase to me in 2 days flat.

that's the way I read it. I don't know for sure because I went ETS. Only had to buy a couple more to eliminate all worm clamp BS from my system.
