Anyone know where to buy a ball flange coupler?
I built a downpipe for the Merk, now I'm trying to figure out how to couple it into the exhaust.. I've used header collector style three-bolt flanges in the past, but those are a PITA because my fluxcore bead tends to be a little tall and it's already a tight fit to get the bolts in around the 3" pipe. Sooo... wondering if any of you gents know where to get a complete ball coupler system (as in both sides) to weld into my exhaust. I've seen 'em at Summit, but they tend to reduce in diameter from one side to another (i.e. 3" to 2.5") and I just want a straight 3" pipe from turbo to tail.
Thanks,
Colin

I should clarify: the system needs to have a slight amount of adjustment in it (up/down, side/side) - if this weren't the case, I'd use a v-band... and I do plan to put a piece of braided flexpipe in the system, but I also need a disconnect point between the downpipe and the rest of the exhaust. Maybe v-band with a flexjoint behind it is the best solution.
