Default !EGR and LS1 intake

I removed the EGR system and well obviously, there is a hole on the intake

I have searched around and seen a lot of pictures, but i still can't get what is a flex freeze bolt.

Anyone got a pic of the bolt itself?

Please

Hey does anybody know where to purchase the egr block-off plates in the Houston area? I need the one on the intake and the one that goes on the header (driveres side). Anybody please.

I just bought mine from Speed Inc. along with the plug. It was like $14 plus shipping for the egr and air block off.

I went to lowes and got some 22ga cold rolled steel and cut my own block off plates, also reused the gaskets off of the egr, no leaks or werid sounds either.
