Is there any reason to keep the EGR tube. No matter how I twist it I still cant get it to sit right without interfering with either the oil line or the water lines. I know a lot of people block it off but is there a downside? (besides emissions)My county dosnt sniff.

1) Your county may change emissions laws some day.
2) You may move some day to a county that does check.
3) The operating EGR won't hurt anything (in some instances it may help).
There was a recent topic on installing EGR tubes that went into more detail.Comment

Right now I got it crossthreaded into the egr bung. I doubt it will leak. I am just concerned about stressing out the egr bung connection on the header. I would guess after a few heat cycles it will relax and sag like everything else.Confucius says" a closed mouth gathers no foot"Comment

Eric.......Tube goes right in.......Do you need a pic?.....Maybe something not lining up right versus your original setup....I thought the EGR was important to the 2.3 based on debate.....1 Modded, 1 NotComment

got it sort of
Like I said it is a new header and there is a litlte stress( ihave to force the egr valve to the intake. Pad gave me the Idea of adding some slight bends which seemes to work and hopefully after a few heat cycles it will take a set.
thanks for the help PatConfucius says" a closed mouth gathers no foot"Comment
