Eve delete

Hi all, my egr system and all my vacuum lines have been giving me problems lately and I heard from a YouTube video that there is a way to delete the whole egr and vacuum system. Does anyone know ho much it’d cost and how hard of a job it’d be? I figured it’ll make my 302 run a lot better and I don’t have to stress about more vacuum lines breaking. Thanks.

A way to delete the whole EGR and vacuum system? No. There are engine and hvac systems that use vacuum.

Make it run better? Maybe. Maybe not.

What EGR codes have you pulled from the computer and what have you done to adresss the problem?

Do NOT delete the egr system. A new egr and solenoid are not incredibly expensive, and they do help you motor run better. Vacuum lines are easy to replace. Issue is finding color coded pre bent vacuum lines. When I have to replace a vacuum line I get generic black tubing, then color both ends with the original factory color using nail polish.
you can delete your air injection system if so equipped. Many have deleted the EGR system with a block off plate, or a dongle to fool the computer. I have never heard of any gains doing this.
