i dunno.. I guess so.. since im getting rid of all that crap.. there is an egr valve on the back of the intake and some other thing which is to the right of the egr and once went to the manifolds.. (never to go back).. just wondering how you handled that hole / egr.. not exactly sure what A I R is ....

thanks.

EGR Tube to Header interface

If you are serious about hooking up your EGR to your headers, give Al at Stainlessworks a call, they should have a part available for this very soon.

you just have to block the square hole where the EGR valve went. If you leave the solenoid valve for the egr valve hooked up it wont give a code. You can replace the solenoid valve with a resistor if you want to get rid of it too.

If anyone is in the Augusta georgia area and needs LT1 OBD1 PCM work done let me know, i can shut off the EGR and stuff like that so you wont need a resistor or anything. VATS, CAG, AIR disable no problem.
