Question Looking for flexible/longer exhaust clamp 3"

Hi guys, my Cosworth/Nameless exhaust seems to be a bit short when cold - catback is touching the frame, whole exhaust is very tight and not moving at all, clamp between catback and frontpipe broke yesterday and now when winter is comming it started to leak at the same spot.
I know I saw a flexible clamp which was also longer than normal clamp, so I was wondering if this would get me at least some flexibility and put catback a little farther, but I cant find it anywhere.
In shop they suggest to cut catback just behind the box and insert 1" pipe to make it longer.
It look similar to this, but they claimed it is flexible but perfectly sealed:

Anyone knows?

That is a vanjen clamp and is not an extension. It is completely different from the V-Band Clamp the exhaust uses.

Thanks. I will probably cut & extend catback/frontpipe today.
