priceless hp
I was talking to a friend and was telling him that i wanted to rebuild my 302 in my truck but it will take me a while, because of money and he told me that i could gain 30 hp just by cutting the EGR nub under the headers. I would just like to know if this is true. thanks

You might be thinking of the smog bump, its not worth 30hp though.

Thermactor bump (air injection bump, smog bump): In the exhaust ports of '68 and later heads there is a raised portion in the roof with a small hole in it leading to the air injection ports at the ends of the heads. I have seen heads with the bump but no hole in it. Needless to say, this bump is a BIG restriction.

Whats your vehicle specs? (year,make,trans.,rear) Is this a daily driver? Do you need to pass a smog inspection?
Sorry for all the questions but we really need to know.
