Atomic 4 Exhaust Flange

Does anybody know if there's any other local sources for the exhaust flange for an atomic 4? Is there a compatible part available from a local auto parts store? I'm in Southern California (OC) and need to get one before next weekend. I'm a little leery of ordering from Moyer--not sure how long it will take for it to ship--and I'd love to find a local and cheaper alternative if there is one available.

Ordering from Moyer is great. I live in NYC and ground shipped parts ordered in the morning arrive the following day. They will express ship if you're worried about it. For a part like that, I'd just go with them. If it was a more common part, like points, plugs, etc., the local parts store is cheaper and quicker.

Moyer usual ships same day, and when you ask for them to get it to you next day, you will get it next day (costs a bit extra, though).

I've ordered about six different times from them, and never had a problem.

I agree Moyer is a very good resource. Their website is great as well and is always full of good information.

It looks like I'll be able to reuse the original one. If I ever find a compatible auto part I'll post it, I can't imagine it would be very expensive.

The only other part I had a hard time with is a 1.25" x 1.25" x .75" reducing tee that feeds water to the exhaust. I had to go with a 1.25" x 1.25" x 1.25" and then use a close nipple, reducer to 3/4", then a 3" 3/8" nipple to attach the hose to. Looks kinda phalic, but I hope it works. Wish I could find that other tee--would be a lot cleaner.
