Hey guys, I will be moving my nitrous nozzle to a different location on my intake pipe. So, I need to fill the hole where it currently is. The current hole is probably about the size of a nickle.

I was thinking about putting something on the inside (tape perhaps) and then just use epoxy from the outside. You all think that would work? Any better ideas?

 

I'd try to find a rubber grommet which fits, and seal it into place with superglue. You don't want something, like tape, to get sucked into the intake tract, and epoxy won't likely make a very strong bond with the plastic tubing. Epoxy also won't do well in that hot environment.

 

Time for a titanium intake tube!!!!!

 

JB weld

 

Yeah, I would have removed the tape after the epoxy hardened, but the temperature factor could be an issue. I might try a grommet, thanks!

 

Ive seen JB weld Fill a crack in an exhaust manifold. It'll be fine on the intake.

 

I'm referring to the plastic intake pipe before the throttle body. Not sure I how feel about JBwelding plastic, lol.

 

I have JB welded all kinds of plastic and things that take more abuse than an intake, trust me it will work. Get the little tubes they are only like $5.

 

Cool, may try it. I'm just deathly afraid of something coming loose and ending up in my engine, lol!

 

Go with a gromet then I doubt your going to have the suction to suck the JB weld out and into the engine....but it is your engine!!

 

If you go with the JB weld method, carefully sand the hole into a "V" shape. You want the big end of the "V" on the outside of the pipe. The "V" shape will help keep the JB Weld from being sucked into the intake. Place tape on the inside of the hole so the JB weld will be flush on the inside. Remove the tape after the JB Weld sets up.
