Your going to need a vette base because it has the ported egr from the exhaust on it from the factory.

Other than that yes, just have to put a pipe from the header to the intake and away you go.

FYI - Scoggin Dickey sells a kit for non-EGR heads on a TPI motor.

Hope this helps.

I wouldnt just block EGR off and not use it unless you are turning it off 100% in the chip.

Several different routines run when EGR is on, so it is best to eliminate it 100% iof not using it.
