exhaust bellows adhesive

[deanna5051]

Can any one tell me if theres another adhesive that can be used ondrive shaft and exhaust bellows other than regular bellows adhesive? I don`t mind the price of buying the stuff just hate to drive 150 mile round trip to get it.
Thanks

Thanks maddog I used it today , I don`t think theres much chance of it leaking, I don`t know if it really needed clamps after it set up.

Maybe I should start a new thread but I have been reading up on installing the 3 bellows and coolant hose on my Alpha 1 when I saw this.
It was my understanding (from this site?) that you don't put any adhesive on the exhaust bellows ( I even wrote it down). I also recall someplace where they said that you can use powertune to help put the bellows on. Well what about the adhesive if you do ? Doubt one would mix the powertune and the bellows adhesive.
Maybe if someone can direct me to a step by step for installing the 3 bellows and coolant line. i.e. which bellows/hose and which side to install first/second etc, where to position the clamp, when to tighten it, do you let the glue dry, do you add adhesive.
it sure would make me more comfortable with this.

Thanks
