Help with egr cooler clamp please!

[Stroked7.3]

I cant seem to get the egr cooler to line up with the up pipe right.... Theres about a 1/4" gap between them and the v band clamp wont seat correctly on it. Any ideas? Im on my 3rd day of replacing the stc and trying to get everything reassembled

Completely loosen then exhaust manifold to y pipe bolts, with turbo out that should give you enough play to get the y pipe lined up.
