    If they are reasonably close in OD, get the closest Shielded Fernco connector. They do have some for differing diameters.

    Actually, in this case, you do NOT want a shielded type clamp/coupling. Instead, you want the all rubber FERNCO type connectors with 2 SS bands. Here, the all rubber ferncos are the only clamp that will accommodate the size and pipe thickness difference between the cement pipe and the new ABS... that, and the fact that the all rubber ferncos are made to be used underground for repair work exactly like this... ;)
