Default LF: 2-3/8" Diamond hole saw in Calgary

Apparently in order to drill holes for 1-1/2" bulkheads I need a 2-3/8" diamond coated hole saw and I have had no luck finding anything online available in Calgary. Any idea where I can get one? I need to drill the tank tomorrow.

Forget that idea. Not worth the risk.

Would a 2-1/2" hole saw be OK? It is 1/8" larger but I would think that the gaskets would keep it from leaking.

Yes princess auto stocks them the only go to 1 5/8 though ,I'm thinking a place like northlands construction might have some in stock although 2 3/8 is kind of a weird size they probably only have 2 1/4 then 2 1/2"
