How do I plug EGR fitting on MAC passenger side header???

I am doing a cam install this weekend and I am going to go ahead and eliminate my EGR with TPIS EGR block off plates. My question is though, on my MAC headers (passenger side) the EGR tube is connected to that. How do I plug that hole in the header without taking that side header off??? Thanks for any ideas!

if not maybe find a tap big enough and get some kind of tappered pipe fitting? or be creative with a welder...

Yep....thats what I used. You only really need to block the tube off at the intake manifold....some people make thier own "getto" blockoff with a peice of coke can(slip it between the tube and intake and bolt it back up) I used steves plates but still left the tube and valve in place so I can pass visual emission inspection.

Good to do it that way so can resale the headers easier.
