You took the "T-bolt" out of the v-band clamp?

The smaller v-band goes to the collector at the back. Guessing I'd say the short one. But to be sure, I'd say it's the one that just barely reaches when the none "T" end is just flush with the nut.

Hope this helps.

I don't know why I asked that. Sorry if it sounded bashing. Witch one was the right one?
