The longer smaller piece of hose is 3/8". This piece of hose is determined on your catch can fittings. I can get you the other sizes this afternoon.

I sort of wanted to add clamps here myself, probably will later. The bigger pipe is probably 1" or so, I believe the other you don't have pictured is around 3/4". I know you want the actual measurements but I'm sure if you just eyeball it and to be safe grab one slightly oversized and you'll be fine. I'm not sure these type clamps are even labeled to size when sold.

Umm he has the whole kit shown... The smaller hose as I said before is 3/8". The biggest piece is 1" and the other piece is 3/4". Hope that helps

Yep, I believe this is true.
Just get it slightly bigger and you'll be safe since you can always tighten it down.

+1 making this thread. I can now go out and buy generic parts and cheaper catch can. Saving some $$$ for other mods.

Again, it might be a bit bigger but do what I did...get a maximum diameter of 1.25 or 1.5 inches and tighten it down. Then I cut the excess off.

I used a total of 6 clamps.
2 for the 3/8" ID hose
4 for the other hoses. (Don't forget about the other end that attaches to the engine 5 and 6)

Only two clamps comes with the kit, two small ones that are use to secure the small hoses to the OCC.

8 clamps if you include the catch can clamps. The ones they sent me were garbage and were already stripped.

Using your picture....

2 & 4 is 3/8" (These go to the catch can, change this size if your catch can fittings are bigger)
1 is 1" or you can go bigger and do 1.25" (This hose goes to the intake pipe)
3 is 3/4" or you could go bigger and do 1" (This hose goes to the PCV or engine side)

Hope that helps.

EDIT: I didn't have a clamp for #5 in Mr. 5's drawing that was big enough. Not to worried because it is the intake side and doesn't get all the nasty oil like #6 does.
