Folks,
thank you so much for your advice regarding the clamps! I finally went 
with the Breeze clamps from McMaster suggested by Fred, Hap, Scott from 
RocketScienceRacing (don't know your last name, Scott) and James 
Marriott over the T-clamps suggested by other folks. Just finished 
installing them in my UrS6 last night. Man, those clamps are huge. :)

Below is the list of clamps that I used:
70-92mm	5325K32		$6.16	2	$12.32
17-32mm	54205K13	$3.67	2	$7.34
57-79mm	5325K31		$6.11	3	$18.33
45-67mm	5325K29		$6.01	1	$6.01
21-38mm	54205K15	$3.77	2	$7.54

It somewhat correlates with the Fred's list, although some clamps have a 
bit different DIA. Let's hope that I will be no longer blowing off the 
Samco hoses under full throttle.
