well last week when to the track and blew off the freezer plug, from what people say, today i took of my lower intake and was thinking of replacing it but i have better plans later on(better heads and p-51 intake), so for now i just want to buy the plug and weld it, but today when i took of the intake i found a crack on top of the hole, can i weld that too, btw this is a plastic intake so just wondering where i could find a place that could weld plastic. here a pic of the crack and the hole with my finger in it

plastic is "welded" with a soldering iron and a shitty tip usually, but it will probably crack again in the same place or right next to it

Do yourself a favor and get a replacement intake. If it was weak enough to crack/split at this spot...there are other weak spots. Do you really want to pay to have it fixed, only to have it happen again?
