Tim: Congratulation on the project. Takes a lot of time to do it right, doesn't it? Pretty exciting when you light it up too! Try to locate a bead roller, it's the best way to do it (try race car fab shops). If not available have someone weld several "1/4" spots or raised bumps about 1/4" from each end of the coolant tube around the circumfrence of the tube. Then clamp the hose with the clamp inside the edge of the bumps. It effectively increases the diameter of the tube that the clamp would have to pass over before "blowing off".
Good luck
Rick
