Relocating Egr

Was reading the article http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tec...ls1/index.html

They talk about using the v6 camaro egr set up and was wondering if anybody did it before ?
I search this forum and couldn't find anything

Only interested because I would like to maintain egr set up

Re: Relocating Egr

i would think the 2.8 remote mount would work. go to a junk yard and look for one and go from there.

It's ok far but it's needs more tuning. Right now I have the heads off for major porting. When I get it back running it should make around 425-435whp @ 6400

Could not figure out why it was too rich til after I had gotten home and look at the graph. Come to find out it had way too much accelerator pump shot at the hit of the throttle. It was 10.7-1 ratio. It should be in the 12.7-12.9 range.
