EGR blockoff plate??

Where can I get one? oh and that stupid ERE actuator thing (on the lower passenger side of the engine) is that easily removed or is it connected to anything in the motor?

You can just make one by cutting some sheet metal and drilling a couple holes in it. Sealing it with silicone or cut a gasket if you feel like it. I forget which I did, maybe both.

that's what I was thinking .... I've got some 2024 aircraft aluminum.... you think it would hold up or should I use some sheet steel?

If you don't feel like fabricating, Street & Performance sells EGR blockoffs in spiffy thick aluminum. www.hotrodlane.cc

if you're lazy like me i bought one for $6. Now if it was a lot more $$$$ like 20+ i would have made my own. But for $6 it didn't feel like it was worth it to me.
