Question What are these ports for ?

Little history:

On a Chevy 350 pre-1987.
Need to replace intake in order to have working EGR.
Egr works and everything.

I notice these ports/area is plugged.


Question:Should I remove that stuff out in order for the EGR to work ?


Intake EGR Plugged ?

Thanks in advance.

Great picture!
Yea, just clean out all that built up carbon from the passages and you will be good to go.

Re: Re: What are these ports for ?

Thanks.

What is weird is it is not carbon but looks like that cold weld stuff.

I guess the previous owner of the intake plugged it up.

I guess he thought he would get more HP.

Maybe true for more hp but I need the EGR to help cool it down even if it is a little.

Thanks for the help.
