Did you even look at the article?

No need to, but i did. T bolts ftw. Worm clamps are garbage. In much higher horse, marmon, aka v band clamps are necessary.

I, and along with every single other diesel on the road has t bolts. And yes we have aluminum piping, stainless, hell both my truck even have plastic charged ends.. still, t bolt. ...
