Question LT1 intake elbow one with the donkey-dong

I have a little problem.
My intake elbow has a rip in it where the clamp goes onto the intake.
Is there a glue I can use in it to seal it up untill I get my new Trick Flow one?

Thanks,

Chris.

superglue or silicon might work...mine has about 4 or 5 rips in it in the same place you are describing and i dont really worry about them as long as they dont get any longer and rip past the clamp.

Yea see mine has a rip through the clamp.
That means I am getting unmetered air into the engine.
I'll try the super glue.
Thanks,

Chris.
