Any way to fix broken ls6 intake I have a broken ls6 intake that I was wondering if it could be fixed. There is a chip(hole) on the back side of it about 3/4" long. Just curious what, if anything, can be done with it.

Re: Any way to fix broken ls6 intake I would think that if you got an autobody patch kit - fiberglass patch, and bondo, burnished the edges, then patched it, it would be fine. When the guys around here filled the "Corvette" on the fuel rail covers (basically the same material) with autobody filler, it seemed to bond and hold really well.

Re: Any way to fix broken ls6 intake This is the intake that UPS either played hockey with or drug behind their truck. It's a bad situation and I'm hoping I can find someone that wouldn't mind using a patched intake.
