How many of you replace OEM hose clamps with OEM hose clamps?

The OEM clamps look like a pain to remove and replace without the right tool from Mcmaster-Carr. Do most of you replace 'em with the screw type?

I use ABA stainless clamps, or Norma..

The ABA have better clamping power though.

Depends on the engine, and the hose.
