Default About to take it all apart...

Can someone please link me to a good AIR delete and EGR removal thread with pics and is very descriptive?

Also, how many band clamps will I need to install TSP headers and ORY? How many for the catback?

Im ready to dive into this project, but want to make sure I have all of the things before I start

Thanks!!

Also, I am wanting to completely move the EGR, not just block anything off. I saw a guide to blocking it off, but I want it all gone. Same with AIR.

Thanks

Just took out the AIR pump and most of the tubing. I only took out the actual pump (3 10mm bolts holding it to the bracket). I left the bracket in there.

I almost have the intake manifold off to replace but ran into a problem.

Where the bracket that holds the throttle body cable bolts into the intake manifold on the LS6 intake manifold I bought, there are no bushings/threads to screw it into. Where would I go to get these?

Needing major help with this problem so I can press on

^^^ I believe you just tap sum threads in.. And use your existing bracket.. You must have the z06 Mani. The Fbody ls6 come with the holes already... Goodluck buddy.
