Default EGR Delete Question

I recently purchased a 2000 SS with the following bolt ons:

- K&N FIPK intake
- American Racing 1 3/4" Long Tubes
- SLP Loudmouth II catback
- O/R Y-pipe, no cats
- Rear O2 delete and tuned out

How do I know if my EGR and AIR have been deleted?

Egr in on passenger side head at the from and goes from top of I take manifold to passenger side header. You can tell if you have air if there is a rubber large diameter line running up the drivers side of the engine bay at the very edge. May be easier to just post a pic of your bay though. Super simple to see if you know what your looking for

Below are a couple shots of the motor.

1.) Top/Center
2.) Passenger Side
3.) Drivers Side
4.) This runs along the fender on the drivers side. It's a hose that just stops. Any idea what that is?

That hose was your air line, it may or may not still be connected to the air pump. Just follow the line into your bumper and you will see where the air pump is/was but looks like you have both air and egr deleted

Thanks. I followed that hose down through the bumper, and the pump is still there. Previous owner must have done the AIR delete with the header install, and just didn't remove the whole system. I'll probably remove the pump and that hose when I get some time.

Anything else that I need to do when removing the pump, since the AIR has already been deleted? Just looking to eliminate the excess clutter and weight.

Pull the fuse and relay for the air system to make sure u don't have a live wire, same for the egr. Heard of open connectors arking against heads/frame
