Don't use the clamps that you have to cut the extra metal off, like the ones used on some CV joints. Those suckers will cut your hands up so bad if you have to do any work around them in the future.

You will be amazed at how much wrap it takes.

I wouldn't go any less than 150-200 ft

And as far as clamps, I don't use them. I use SS wire.

Use safety wire that's all i've ever used and it works perfect and is hard to spot with the eye if going for a clean look, just an extra plus.
