Can someone tell me what style hose clamps were used for the heater, radiator
and breather cap to air intake hoses on a 1966 6 cyl.?

Thanks

I don't know for sure, but the catalogs (e.g. Mustangs Unlimited) show both
band and wire style clamps for the years 65-70. Their older catalog (which
is what I found first) also says:

Our experience with these clamps has been that '64-1/2 cars
use wire style clamps, '65-69 cars use band style and '70-73
use wire style.

Heater and radiator hoses - dated tower band style (Wire style was first
installed on San Jose Mustangs in 66)
Breather cap - wire - pliers type
