Unhappy Does my 99 ram 1500 5.2 have an EGR valve?

Please pardon my ignorance, I'm having a brain fart here....Im ordering the mopar m1 intake since I have the plenum problem, and I don't know if I have an EGR valve or not....there are two versions for fuel injection intakes, EGR connection or without. I bought the truck in texas if that matters.
thanks in advance,
d

No egr on a 99, sorry. Change your order or maybe you can plug it, if it's just a port.

Either M1 intake will work, EGR or not. I just purchased a used M1 intake with EGR provisions and I'm just going to block the EGR provisions off, since my 5.9 motor does not have EGR provisions.

Absolutely not. It has more torque now than it has in awhile. It had the old plenum gasket fail leak. Also found the check valve in the vacuum line started to cause the ac to default to defrost. $2.75 for a valve from orileys, and its fixed.
Milage is right around 275000. I haul pool tables all over the country in this truck. I definatly pull better and get on the highways way better now, than I could before.
According to Mopar, theres only 13 of these left in stock...ha.
While I was at it, I had to drill out the front two manifold bolts, and I was gonna do a oil pan gasket anyway, so I went ahead and replaced the oil pump. Pan came right out, didn't have to remove anything other than the two trans brackets.
This forum is so helpful.
