Default LS6 install ??

Search is being.... quirky. I am gonna install my LS6 intake tomorrow, and as of right now I have EGR yanked and have the code tuned out. Now I know there's no provision for it on the LS6, but do I have to do anything special, I see there's some hub and spoke contraption in the back of the manifold... best I can tell, the big one is for the brake booster line. The other...?

The small port on the back of the intake manifold (points toward the passenger side) is for the A/C, it operates the shutter door inside to divert air from floor/vent/etc.

There's a hole for the MAP sensor as well, unclip the old one, and just pull it out, might be a bitch though.

BTW almost have the thing off, your technique of using a screwdriver to get the clips off... 10x better because you dont have to hold the damn press clip to take 'em off
