3" exhaust ball flange
im doing my own exhaust and i want to use ball flanges, but i cant find any that are 3 inches and in stainless steel. does anyone know where i can get some.
also, am i retarded for using ball flanges, should i use a different type of flange? if so what kind, and i need them in stainless steel.

I know Flowmaster makes 3" (and several other sizes) ball flanges, but I've never seen them in stainless (the ones Gonzo posted are not stainless). They're kinda expensive, even in the aluminized exhaust piping... For the money, I'd weld (or clamp) on the braided stainless flex connectors and have more movement...
