When I installed my explorer upper into my 1990, I had to eliminate my egr spacer (which the throttle cable plate bolts to). The EGR will not bolt to the Explorer upper because I need to fabricate bolts I guess.

Looking at the explorer intake, it has two 2in. (i think) threaded ends comming out and two threaded holes for bolts. How do you bolt the egr to the Explorer intake? The EGR plate is thicker than the bolts coming out.

Unless there is a way to make my own throttle cable plate to bolt up to my throttle body or intake, I'm screwed or so it seems. I don't need the egr plate because I'm not using emissions.

What are my options, I need to use my gas pedal

.

Thanks,
Leo
