Looking for input. I’ve got a 4” to 1.5” flared flex cap for the base but trying to adjust the pipe ever so slightly seems to be troublesome. Any thoughts?

If it’s just a little bit off, you can use a heat gun to heat the PVC until it is a little bit bendable. Then you can gently bend it into shape so it connects to the spot you need it to. Just make sure to heat the pipe evenly from all sides and don’t kink the pipe when you bend it.
Never heat gun PVC, get it JUST a little too hot and your lungs are shot forever.
