I'm not sure how to post links but burnsstainless has them. Good choice on the V-bands.. those are nice clamps.

I was told by a guy here that you can buy them from Ford along with the ferrule for the exhaust side, I am not sure how much but its apparently decently priced..Max

Max,
I went to the ford dealer and asked to order a V-band clamp and they had no clue of what I was talking about. Do you know the part number or what ford vehicke it comes on.
thanks

I am pretty sure its the same one used on the new Ford Powerstroke diesels, I saw it in a baggy that had the Ford logo on it, so it came from them, the Ford uses a T04E so it should be pretty much the same. The truck is the only turbo vehicle they make now so they should be able to deduce that much...Max

I might be the man then.. check out:

HKS only lists one V-band clamp but they might have more. As for Ford's using them.. I THINK they use T-bolt clamps on their turbos, not V-band clamps.. I could be wrong.
