Need V Band clamp

Hey guys, sorry if im posting this is the wrong spot, didnt know where else to....

So i got my used comptech today and come to find out no v clamp included... SO not only do I have to wait to install I also got to spend 30$+ on a clamp. Any idea where I can get this like ASAP? I check AZ and Advanced neither stock it. I was thinking maybe a truck dealership, turbo deisel...

Any input would be appreciated, thanks!!

anyone who sells FI parts will have one. Excelerate is the first that comes to mind. Jegs, Summit and other big houses also will have it.

Unless you live in CT or OH, you'll have to wait for shipping.

Try to get one locally or from Comptech. I've seen a bunch of different size flanges for 2.5" especially the ebay stuff. I know they are used a lot in industry try Mcmaster maybe.

I had the same thing happen when I got mine, except I actually broke the one that came with it. CT didn't have any, I ended up ordering it online from somewhere that sold Caterpillar parts.

If you have a diesel supply shop, you can get one local and they're much cheaper there. Diesel shops are where I buy all my v-band clamps, constant torque intercooler clamps, and silicone intercooler couplers much cheaper than anywhere else.
