I believe with the block off plates one of the EGT sensors goes in a plate to give you an EGT reading.
I haven't ordered mine yet but I'm doing block-off plates and DPF delete pipe. Keeping the stock tail section.

Yes, I went to Diesel dynamics this morning and they showed me to pull the longer pipe, put the plate with the bung on the exhaust and use a sensor off the dpf as the egt sensor and the other plate simply blocks off the egr. I thought i would need to pull the short pipe off and still might just as preventative measures but they said that it was not necessary.
I am still spraying my bolts every day just to make pulling the bolt out of the manifold painless...I hope

No. it's the longer pipe with the stabilizer bolt that gets removed.

Hello all. I don't mean to hijack any forum, but I do have a question about egr delete/block off plates and tuning. I have been reading forums but have not been able to find a definitive answer. My question is, do I just need a tuner to turn off the egr valve or do I need someone to write a custom tune for the delete/block off plate?
I have a sct x4 tuner I had bought for my 2003 6.0. I have read that this tuner will work for my 2012 6.7. In the past, I have had Matt from gearhead write my tunes for my 6.0.
Any info you all have to help me is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I will do that. If I just need to turn off the egr valve, the sct x4 has that standard and I wouldn't need a tune to be wrote for the truck.

I talked to someone at gearhead and they recommended me to powerstroke engunities. Powerstroke engunities said that a tune had to be written for the 6.7. They also said they could not just write an egr tune but had to write an egr and a dpf delete tune.
