go to home depot/wal mart etc and look for a stool or chair leg cap in the proper diameter. works like a charm.

I drilled a hole in the back of the elbow and welded on a little bit of tubing so that I could still connect my air bypass hose. I didn't want any trouble from the smog folks. Worked very well.

You can get HELP! brand black rubber water hose caps from the auto parts store that work great. I think the size is 1/2" or 5/8" (can't remember which). Put a hose clamp on there to hold it in place.
