I clicked on the where to buy. Put my zipcode and a 70 mile radius. It showed Motor parts distributor's in Modesto. One of my part suppliers at the shop. You can either do the same. Or I can check with them tomorrow to see if they indeed actually do offer those. Let me know.

Re: Anyone know where to get these hose clamps locally?
Ya can you do that for me? I need two for the top radiator hose and one for the lower hose to water pump. I am not going to worry about the lower radiator hose side as that sits so low and out of the way it would be difficult to even get a proper heat gun down there to seal it shut.
I think those 'clamps' look so much cleaner and with a nice coolant pipe instead of rubber hose my engine bay will be that more more complimented!

The gates look good but what if you need to remove it?
Cool video of them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4O91YqHbp8c
why not some nice billet pieces? http://www.prolockhoseclamps.com/

Cut it to remove it, apply new ones 
How often do you really remove hoses anyways? I have not removed one since my last radiator job.

Re: Anyone know where to get these hose clamps locally?
Ok called my source. They used to carry them all. They never moved any after promoting them and all. And got rid of the whole line. So it's a no go on my part. Check your area Trav. You have connections in oreilly still too right? You should be able to go to gates direct via Oreilly and order what you need. If you cant do that. I can go through my oreilly and see if they can come up with anything.

my local store I retired from is too dumb to locate the gates catalog to even find me a part number.
