Question

Some Quick Questions


hey everyone, so im just starting to post on here
and im sure these questions have been asked and answered,
but i thought i would ask

ok, so when you do the EGR block off, do you have to do anything but
just put something in between to block it?

also i have A 1989 with a distributor, where is the bolt i need to loosen
so i can set my timing? (if u need pictures i have some)

thats it for right now
im just now really starting to upgrade this car, i got it as my first car and
now i want to upgrade it so i can have a relatively fast car. so far ive put
on my own CAI, better coil, plugs, and wires.

thanks guys

they have actual EGR block off plates you can put on, there like $11

as for the distributor, there should be one bolt under the intake that goes into the head

fairly simple to locate
