Freakin junk crap!!!! IMHO,, you will be doing a disservice to the truck using that. But,, there's never enough time or money to do it right the first time,, but always enough time and money to do it again.

I understand what you're trying to do but I don't understand how you're trying to do it.

You're looking to block the exhaust flow into the EGR cooler itself?

I'm like 99% sure you can't just plug the up-pipe and leave the original EGR cooler sitting there?

EGR BYPASS BLOCK-OFF/DELETE KIT FOR 03-07 FORD SUPERDUTY 6.0 POWERSTROKE DIESEL | eBay Is this the kit you are looking at?

I must not be understanding what you are doing.

But that little puck that people put on the up pipe flange results in more exhaust bellows leaking, that exhaust bellows not leaking.

I think when some installed this they was prying on the pipe to install and bending the bellows out of orig shape and later leaking,if done without the prying bellows should be ok,it would be same as adding a full delete kit with a solid egr uppipe but anything can happen if pryed on, Im going to do a full delete later while doing other stuff but id like to stop all exh from going into the egr cooler so no chance of it ruptering and causing more probs now.

I really don't think you understand how it's actually blocked off or how it would work. But I would definitely be interested in seeing how you get it set up

You can't put that plug in to "block exhaust flow" and put the egr cooler back in its proper place. If you can hats off to you.

I understand that. I have that exact plug in my truck

unless you're talking about freeze plugs in the cooler itself. Then yes it can be done

They have a stainless plug that beveled on one side,has a stepup on other side that goes into the egr cooler inlet,as you tighten the v clamp it pushes the plug tighter into both the uppipie tee and the coolers inlet making a tight seal both ways,was going to remove pipe,install plug,reinstall pipe,leave bottom loose do v clamp end first,then tighten bottom,trying not to pull intake,turbo right now., Thats the plan anyway,you know how plans work tho.
