Default Minus EGR -- UH, wtf??

Did the head/cam install this weekend, we also deleted AIR and EGR, problem is, I purchased the blockoff plates from Pace Performance, but, how the hell do I block off the EGR provision on the top of the LS1 intake???
They didnt send me any part for that, WTF?

you need to pick up a 1 3/8in rubber freeze plug and use that to plug the manifold

An auto parts store would probably yeild better results than a hardware store. My Autozone carries them.

Hell, I used a rubber expansion plug from checkers. Found by the oil and filters. Cut the EGR tube off by the mounting plate at intake, insert the plug, and twist the wing-nut. Thats it, no leaks.
