if its just a crack

have it welded up.

if welding isnt an option, slip a small piece of exhaust tubing over it and clamp it down

Glass pack (Cherry Bomb) is most inexpensive route. If you like it, keep it. Or save your pennys until you can get a Flow Master 40. I guarantee you'd like how a FM 40 sounds.
