Awesome! The new intake doesn't have any provisions for an EGR, so it'll be gone all together soon..

I'll plug the thing in the first pic, but what is it and what was it's purpose (just out of curiosity.. the new manifold doesn't have one I noticed)

The PCV valve: I heard that a clogged valve can cause a rough idle, and a slew of other problems.. how can I check this (I guess with the manifold on or off, since I'm changing it anyway).. also.. according to the manual that came with the Holley, there's a place to hook up a PCV valve.. should that be hooked up there? Or is its current location on the manifold alright?

So is the vac line to the modulator in a good place now? Or should it be hooked up to the full manifold vac line on the carb? Or what?

Thank you so much for the response! I figured someone knowledgeable would come along and just clear it all up!
