x2 on plug sizes, im pretty sure all the vacum nipples and that idle up valve on intake manifold are all 1/8in bspt. Does anyone know the thread size of the BVSV?
This is how my buddies engine turned out after stripping off useless stuff... runs awesome.. I got most of all the same stuff pulled off as well... looks so much better!
I just pulled all my unneeded vac lines and welded all the ports shut. I also cut the back of the intake off where the egr bolted. I made a plate and welded it all up.
adjust your air flow meter a couple clicks loose to add more fuel
EGR Exhaust Gas Recirculation puts exhaust gas during part throttle which takes up the space of fresh air in the combustion chamber .... because there is less air less fuel is needed to maintain 14.7:1 AF ratio so often when you remove an EGR the vehicle will seem hesitant during part throttle like drivability gets worse because its running a little leaner then it did with a functioning EGR
on some old fuel systems I used to tune, which did not have any RAM ... learnability and used a hot wire air flow sensor which couldent be adjusted so I edited the file (tuned the ECU) around the removal of the EGR
really the EGR is a fuel saving device which dosent operate at full throttle usually so it dosent cost power... it cools the combustion chambers and reduces NOX emissions
anyway a little tech on EGR which is probably totally useless here but if anyone was cuurious
have a great weekend

I have pulled the tubes from T-bodies and threaded the holes for plugs or set screws numerous times.
