Mayf, Go to www.fragolaperformancesystems.com   look at the series 8000 
push-lite race hose picture on page 9. Those are the type clamps that 
are made for the push lock both blue and their black hose. They work 
very well as long as you remember to slide them on the hose before you 
put the fitting on. LOL  Now how would I know that?
