EGR Block off
Hey all I am in the process of building a 305 in my daily driver Convertible. I am using the L98 Vette heads #113 with no egr. I have no emissions so I need to know where I can get a block off plate. I am running the stock prom, will I have any problems with it.
Thanks

You can make one out of steel or aluminum. TPIS sells one out of aluminum for about $8 if I remember correctly...

I had an old fuel pump block off plate (you know, the one that goes over the mechanical fuel pump location on the block) and used the EGR gasket as a template.
Cut it out, drilled a couple of holes, a little sensor safe silicone sealant and bolted it on.
It's been on over three years now - of course I did have the EGR turned off in my PROM so no SES light.
Hope this helps.

you can just make one out of a piece of metal. THats what I did. Im going to have it powered coated black or red to match my other pieces.

Why? You can't see it anyway with everything installed!! That's why I wonder why TPIS bothers with its polished aluminum one, what's the point?? Whatever floats your boat...
