Very easy to do. Go get some thick sheet metal. Cant remember what gauge i used. And some tin snips. Cut em out, drill the holes and put gasket maker on and your done.

When you remove the stock intake and add the LS6 intake, can you just block off the EGR "port" off the header completely?

Seems like I see a lot of posts about "holes?"
