I pretty much deleted my emissions on my truck, the only thing I kept was the egr. There is a pipe that bolts to your lower intake manifold as far as I can tell none of it goes to exhaust, I have full length headman long tube Headers too and the only pipe that connected to the exhaust that I could see was the air pump pipe and that was rusted off for well over a year before I got the truck no check engine light. In fact the only check engine light I got was from not hooking my 02 sensor back up it wouldn't reach with my long tubes.

Ok Sean, then why, when I did my headgaskets, did I un bolt the egr from the throttle body, then from the lower intake? No exhaust. Unless that part isn't egr

It's a Canadian thing eh!
Did it have a threaded steel tube under it that goes down to the exhaust manifold? 5.0L egrs are different design then the 4.9L

On a V8 some tubes were from the Exhaust manifolds

alrighty
anyways, right now the truck is parked. i stayed without a job and start daily driving a honda.
the egr pipe was always off since ive had the truck.
the question is really,
what can i do with the vaccum line and sensor plug if i buy an EGR Delete plate ?
so i wont get check engine light on at all.

I have the same issue I put longtubes on my 95 (302) and had to cut the metal pipe going to the egr..... its just open under neath now I get the check engine light after driving for about 60 seconds and its off again every time you shut off and start back up again.
Should I plug the end of the pipe??? I don't want to go through the PITA of removing everything and installing a block off plate...... the truck runs great as is right now I just want to get rid of the CEL!!!!
