AD search during prebuy noted TIO540 exhaust V clamps (3 on turbo model) are timed out at 50 hours since we can not prove when they were installed. No big deal until we found out the larger clamp-40D22382=$2400.00+ and two smaller-40D22383=$1700.00 each.

Apparently used on Cirrus as well; probably others we don't know about. Anybody know of a viable cost effective (cheaper) replacement? We haven't got an answer yet from a Cessna Service Center that maintains a few 206Hs; but, they probably just pass the cost along anyway.
