V-Band Issues

[RyaN95i4]

Im using a Holset HX40 with a Bullseye Power turbine housing. I opted for the vband adapter BEP sells as well.

Well, BEP hasnt been able to source vband's for a couple months now, so I went outside BEP to buy a vband flange for the downpipe and clamp.

The issue now is the 3" inside diameter Vband flange on the BEP housing has a larger outside diameter than the 3" ID flange I bought.

Picture for reference:

The BEP flange has an 3.75" OD

The shop I bought the smaller flange from does not have anything with that size OD -- Does anyone know where I can source a vband flange/clamp with a 3.75" OD?

ALready tried clampco, they dont do usually do small runs and it was going to cost $600 just to have everything setup for a new run (a new run for 1 flange/clamp) because its not a size already in stock...

I found a shop in Cali that may be able to help, but Ill call pagparts tomorrow to see if they can help out. Most of the car suppliers dont have 3" Vbands with that large of outside diameters though.

That 3 5/8" should work. 1/8 isn't enough to make it not fit I wouldn't think.

Well I need the the flange as well, not just the clamp.
