You can get a plate, (egr block off plate) and cover the holes in the back, but, PCM may set codes for EGR..... or not. It's a crap shoot.
Is there any way to to let it code or ride funny I looked there is a plug in the header they must of removed the o2 when they did my exaust, 02 pipe is gone...

A bit ruff needs more elbow grease








Already had a double chain but it was loose.. When I put the new one on it was much tighter was scared cam was bad









Bracket pic is for a rough generalization of what it'll look like and sealant pic is where I noticed new timing chain gasket looked kinked :/ didn't notice till I got it all back together

Just skip the egr, unless/until it causes a problem. Can you pull the pipe plug out of the header on the passenger side, and install an O2 sensor there? Your truck only uses one.

Front only on your truck. On the OBDI fellers, they didn't care about cat efficiency.

They make weld-on bungs as well.... so, if you can't get the plug out, that would be another option.

Plug for the O2 sensor will be up on top of the trans, just behind the bellhousing. You can see it, or, you can touch it, but, likely not both at the same time.

Haha right on btw should I do the fouler trick or get a x pipe installed cause currently running true duels headers back don't know if that'll mix with the air gas mixture?

X or H pipe wouldn't hurt. If both pipes run down the same side of the truck, just put a cross-pipe in where they first come together, and put the sensor there.
