Unbelievable. Gonna bust out the JB Weld tomorrow and see if I can close it up. What a PITA.

Default The "crater" it left is about 1/4" wide. Not sure how big the opening at the bottom is.

It leaks sum'm fierce, though.

Default I was going to try to JB weld it without removing the bipipe, but I'll pull it to photo.

That's how much I love you guys.

Seriously. Might replace with stock and samco. I'll see if APR will replace and I'll sell on AZ lol.
