well i usually post in 1st. gen,but my engine is 5.2 magnum.
my issue is if i do the kegger mod to my 93 d150 5.2 magnum,what do i do with the EGR tube in the middle of the intake(inside it)?????
i still want my EGR system to work properly so my check engine light does not come on.
i picked up another intake so i can get it ready to go on,mod,hughes plenum plate,new roller lifters etc...
i do know that 92-96 have this EGR tube inside them,well some 96's. what has everyone else done???? thank you

 

Just cut that sucker out. EGR will still work fine, but, the gases may not be distributed as evenly. You could just carve out the part of the divider after the EGR tube as well.

 

hey you, i see you have 96 5.9 did yours have the EGR tube or no? if you just cut it out,will it still run and idle good??
on the inside the end of the EGR tube has 2 holes,1 facing the left and one facing the right. i was cleaning the carbon build up out of the tube,in the end of it there was a washer with a smaller hole in the center of it, does this washer need to be in there somewhere???
i would not worry about the mystery washer if i just cut the tube out.
anyone else just cut this tube out?? but still hook up the EGR valve.
thank you

 

I got a manifold from a 97, no provisions for EGR, and modded that one, and then just did the manifold swap when the time came. My stock manifold had a block off plate, and no other provisions for EGR. I don't get any codes, so, I suspect that was dodges answer to eliminating EGR, but, still having some EGR manifolds left.

 

also will i loose any low end?? my truck seems to have a extra lot of low end grunt. this is my second truck with the magnum 5.2,and this one seems it has way more power than my 1st. magnum 5.2(it was in a 92 ramcharger)and that one ran strong.
dont want to do this if i will loose bottom end torque. thank you

 

I didn't seem to. Infact, I picked up a fair bit of low end grunt. Of course, my plenum was severely blown. Changing the timing chain and gears made a huge difference as well

 

i just did my kegger mod/plenum leak /major tune up and i didn't lose any low end power i actaully feel like a gained a little but you can feel it alot on the freeway my truck will do 90mph pretty fast and its not to the floor

 

anyone do this mod to a 94-96 with EGR?? did you cut the EGR tube out??
any problems after it was all back together?? just need some more info on this. thank you
