Default Where can I get 3" to 3" header collector ball flanges?

This is what Im thinking of using to connect the ends of the Kooks headers to the beginning of my true duals. I was told this was the best way to do it because its the easiest to work with and least likely to leak. The only thing that Ive found is from Flowmaster, but I didnt see a 3" to 3". What are your thoughts on using this flange? Where to get them? Id like stainless steel depending on the price, but regular steel is fine. Thanks.

have you tried summit or jegs? why dont you just use some regular old 3 bolt collector flanges that can be found at any parts store. i had those for my jet hots and Y and 9 bolts would remove the whole Y with ease.

Because I was told that it was easier to work with, that it replaces the standard 3 bolt flanges, is less likely to leak, and doesnt use a gasket.

I bet you can get flanges from Kooks.

I checked out Kook's site, but no offense, theyre site kinda sucks. I wanted to search through their products, but doesnt look I can do so. I did a search for flanges, but all I got was header flanges. Id like to have stainless steel to go with the stainless Kooks, but I guess it wouldnt hurt to have aluminized. I got my Dr. Gas x-junction in today and I was browsing their catalogue and noticed that they sold 3" to 3" ball flanges. Here's a direct link, what do you think?
