Default 2001 / 2002 EGR: Yes or No?

I know the 2000 cars have EGR how about the 01 and 02's?

Thanks,
Ernie

Nope. They went to the LS6 intake and eliminated the EGR.

Thanks John. That is just about reason alone to shoot for an 01!

Thanks!

I agree!
We do mostly retrofit packages here, and I am getting ready to do a company project vehicle using a 91 Z28. When I looked over the LS1 packages I had in stock, I grabbed the '01 for my own project. <img src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" border="0" alt="[devil]" />

The EGR isn't needed with the 01 and up cars. I think the cam timing/overlap takes car of the needed EGR function, or at least that's how the <img src="graemlins/corvette.gif" border="0" alt="[Corvette]" /> does it.

yes, the cam creates enough overlap that an EGR system is unnecessary.
