To mod, or to rebuild? That is the question.. The $2000 question

[REDCRAPGP]

all you need is the zzp block off plates for the delete correct?

No

You also need....

Wait for it....









Copper rtv and a penny and nickel aka some change. Once you remove the egr u rtv either a penny or nickel over the hole (whichever fits better) then rtv the block off plate over it. I kno very expensive.

hmmmm.. hmm


How to? I can picture it, kind of.. But sounds ghetto

 

[comatoast]

also if you take out the stock airbox, is there anywhere to place the pcm?

 

[REDCRAPGP]

You won't see the change it goes underneath the block off plates and just helps to seal the egr holes. Cheap and very effective.

It will stay in place no need to mount the PCM unless you want to and you can just use a few zip ties to keep it held down.

thanks again for all the help man.. Its just that one clip holding the pcm to the airbox, right?

Emm I believe so I don't remember exactly its been 5 years or so

 

[comatoast]

lol, thanks

I wouldn't rebuild unless you had a actual reason to rebuild. If your motor is running fine now...just slap the mods on it and keep on trucking. These motors are a beast and mileage wouldn't scare me.

Do you have any pics of your header install? Either I'm an idiot or can't find any pics. Especially 04+ just trying to see how people worked the trans stick , the ac lines and what needed to be done with the radiator fan motor.

 

[REDCRAPGP]

Probably the only one I took. I like to dive in and complete **** lol so I'm not much of a picture taker

Remove the trans dipstick should be one 10mm holding it. Will leak a little bit of trans fluid out and once you get he read header attached use a extension and add it back. Ac lines you literally just grab a rag and you some muscle and slowly push if down. Then throw the front header on and make sure there's clearance.

I didn't have to pull my trans dipstick at all. I just got everything bolted up and bent it a little where it was touching.
