    A couple of years ago, I have located some of those miniature 5mm wide clamps, which are correct original clamps on very small diameter hoses - 7-11mm and 11-19mm.

    Apparently, they were originally made by Norma, intended primarily for use on some farm equipment in European markets. For Cavallinos, these were used throughout the emissions, vacuum, and fuel systems on small diameter hoses.

    I had to buy a bunch of them, at a ridiculous price, and import them from Germany to the US through a distributor, since they were not sold at retail in this country.

    So, if anyone is interested, I'd be willing to sell some in small quantities, to recover some of my investment. Price would be US$4.50 each, plus shipping.

    Tim,
    How many do we use in a 308 QV? If it's 3 or 4... let me know, I'll take some. Thanks.

    Karl,
    Sent you several PM replies and some by email.
    Based on Ferrari exploded diagrams for 308QVUS, it looks like your car would use 6 large + 2 small clamps for a total of 8. (that happens to be what I've used on my '88 328, also).
    Please let me know if you want 8, or to add a couple of spares, and I'll send you PayPal info, so we can get these shipped right away.
    Thanks!

    Tim - what's a small quantity?

    I'm interested in at least 10. If I can get more, I'd take 20.

    Please let me know.

    These clamps are available from Wurth. I just bought a box of a hundred this week.

    OK- I've looked through the Wurth website:

    Wurth Site | Homepage

    I think the clamps the OP is selling are more correct than any of the wurth products. I'd like to see what Newman is talking about.

    FWIW: At the Wurth's website I could never find these exact miniature clamps.

    They, and many others, do have miniature clamps in similar sizes, but I've never found these exact clamps (which match the originals on my 1988 car) anywhere else.

    If someone does have a source for these exact clamps, please share - those of us who want to stay strictly original can use the help!

    Newman,

    Nice! I searched domestically without success, and ultimately had to import mine from Germany (both sizes). They're not Wurth branded (one size came in a box marked Norma).

    Can you share your source, so fellow Ferraristas can buy them too?

    Many thanks!
