Message	There is just more metal between the bolts and the center of the pipe on a 2.5" flange. Yes, I speak from experience. I am currently running 2.5" TPs bolted to my 3" DPs until I can fab up my 3" TPs. No leaks, just restrictive. Click to see how intelligent our leadership really is... Biden Pelosi Obama Obama
