It's real simple. It took me about 10 minutes total. Go to LS1Camaro.net. All the info you'll need is there. Expect to trip the SES light unless you can tune it after. There is some debate over losing MPG after getting rid of the EGR, but mine went up after removing that and adding LT's. You won't gain anything just pulling it out for no reason. Best to wait for intake/LT install. You will shave a few pounds off though.

I used that link to ls1howto so I wouldn't miss anything. It didn't take any time at all. One of the very few things I've done that didn't have at least one major hangup. 
Edit: It is a 1 3/8" freeze plug.

home depot, i just wrote a big thing up and it deleted lol. get the corner brackets they have up there and they have predrilled holes. cut them and drill another hole and your done. get a freeze plug for the intake, a rubber one, i forget the size though, but u can just measure the diameter.

i took off my AIR and EGR before i did any mods, i love to clean up my engine bay
oh and BTW , MTI deleted my EGR/AIR codes, as well as my rear O2 sensors for 75 bux, which is cheaper than the price of O2 simulators
any local speed shop should do the same for less than the price of a full tune.

when you guys pulled the Air pump did you remove the charcoal cannister in the back of the intake manifold as well? I just pulled it and there is like a lil metal line that goes to 2 small 1"x2" sensors or something. Do those go too??????
