Having trouble with my EGR

Having trouble with my EGR
Im out in the garage trying to get off the two bolts that clamp the EGR into the back of the intake, cuz im gonna block it off with a plate so that exhaust gas doesnt go into the intake, but it will still look like i have an egr, plus it wont take much work. However, im having extreme difficulties getting off the two of those bolts. Anyone have any input for me? I was trying to think of a better way to eliminate the EGR, but i figured that was the best way. Please help me out, i need to get rid of the bog and studder on my LT1

Do you know for certain that the EGR is the cause for your studdering. When I was searching for the cause of my hesitation/missfiring/studder, it turned out to be a dead O2 sensor. Nothing much is to be gained from removing the EGR anyway.

You'll have to use a open box end wrench, attack it from the drivers side, its tight be can be done, I think got 1 bolt from the drivers side and one from the pass side. I think its a 14mm maybe 15mm...
Took me about 20 mins....

Yep, the key is a boz end or open end wrench. I know I had tried with a socket, and struggled for a long time on it. Pulled out the box end wrench set and had it in less than 5 minutes.
I recall it being a 13mm. (But I wouldn't put money on it, my memory is terrible).

are u sure that we have the same two bolt sizes? Cuz i think i was able to fit a 1/2 inch on the bolt, which isnt metric...but maybe its supposed to be metric, i dont know.....
