Actually, an EGR removal question.
81 which is stock but will be getting some mild mods.
Going to TBI, so will be losing ecu function, so will be going mechanical/vacuum HEI.
Going with a short duration efi & computer compatible cam with 0 overlap @ 050 on about a 9-1 comp ratio and a Performer type intake with Vortec style heads but no effective quench with the stock pistons.
I'm not in a smog test area, but I do know that if functioning properly an EGR does have some benefits, i.e. some help with avoiding detonation and sometimes a dab better mileage due to possibility of running a little more advance.
I haven't looked but don't remember seeing any external EGR on the basic Performer style intakes, and with no overlap there isn't any "internal" EGR-like function.
I know lots of C3 owners get rid of the ecu, and was wondering if anyone has ever worked thru getting a functional EGR when doing so.
Thx!
