you won't gain any performance but it will clean up your intake. deposits on the valves have been known to come loosed and cause issues
Well I have a 95 6.5 with a S intake I think unless it was changed. the egr is directly on the top what do I do to delete it I read it's different from 95 and the 96. I don't want to throw a check engine light. The truck has been running great especially after the manual wastegate and I finally finished a bottle of PS off in it. What's the best way to delete the egr without having to flash the ECM or change anything. I was thinking just a metal plate under it then bolt it back on with some black Rtv.

pretty much
Do I have to worry about check engine codes or anything because somewhere I read just block the line on it off on the 95 or the plate.

just leave the vac line plugged in
Ok I'll make a block plate and just Rtv and bolt it back on.

Block off plate stops it from working but that lump is still a restriction. Some say even plugged in, it will still set the code. Only way is to delete it and wait and see.
What do you mean still a restriction by having the vacuum still hooked up? I guess I'll have to just try it and see if the light comes on I'll just connect it back up.
I found my answer after digging through google. I can just block it off on an OBDI truck without flashing it. So I guess tomorrow I will block it off then when it starts to warm up when I do my glow plugs and injectors I will die grind my intake out and clean her up or I'll get a used F intake. Most likely will just end up cutting all the stuff out doing the cheap way lol.

The intake and hat are a restriction, find a non egr setup.
Here's a hat, $55 shipped, brand new.

You just saved me money I was going to buy mine from car - part from a F Vin for 150 when I get paid. I guess I'll be getting it from flea bay. [emoji3]The intake and hat are a restriction, find a non egr setup.

The actual intakes are a bit more money. If your not in a rush, mine will be for sale in a few months, probably ask $75 plus shipping.
Not in any rush just keeping my eyes open. I need to get other things done first.

Swapping to the non-EGR intakes is something I always recommend. The EGR intakes are a huge restriction even when you block them with a freeze plug
I have 2 stock PROM chips if you want a stock tune that gets rid of EGR codes.
