I'm putting a Holly 4160 carb on it. 600 cfm. I cant find out what "NO EGR provision means. It came with the manifold paperwork. Any comments on this set-up are appreciated. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | EGR = Exhaust Gas Recirculation, a setup to reduce NOx emissions on some OEM engines - means if yer 307 had an EGR setup, you got the wrong manifold?

Also engines with EGR had Exhaust gas recirc passages in the heads to plumb exhaust gas to the EGR intake port on the manifold. Then the EGR valve would allow some of the exhaust gas back into the intake ports to be burned again as a pollution control. Some engine designs (73-79 pontiac for example) will exhibit a terrible exhaust leak at the intake manifold when a non-egr intake is used on EGR heads. The ports between EGR heads and Non-egr intake manifolds don't line up. When that happens, you've got to run an EGR manifold, or swap to non-EGR heads, or fill the EGR passages in the head with high temp epoxy or molten lead.
good luck
