![Question](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Ok, so I swapped out the LS1 intake for a BBK SSI one and while the manifold was off I went ahead and yanked out all the air/egr stuff. My question is what I do with the vacuum lines in the back of the intake. I am keeping the LS1 coolant lines and pcv setup since they do not interfere with the BBK intake so I basically need to know where everything hooks up with my setup. I know that the big hose on the back of the intake on the driver side goes to the brake booster but I am a bit unsure about the little one on the passenger side. There was a check valve along with some other stuff that I think is the egr solenoid but I’m not certain. Correct me if I am wrong but from my interpretation the small line on the passenger side controls the HVAC. With this said can I simply connect this line to the little port on the back of the intake and be done with it or do I need to keep the check valve and other stuff in between it and plug to unused lines? Here are some pics of what I’m talking about.
Here is the thing I think is the egr solenoid. Can I trash this?

Here is the line I want to hook straight to the back of the intake. Can I do this?

is it not used for hvac? if I plug the line I would need to plug the intake port as well correct? with eveything out of there if i plug that line then there is nothing to plung into the pass side port on the back of the intake.
