Why exactly do you want to take it off ? Why not just put a blocker plate and finger stick it instead ?

You'll need to fab a plate to block the two rectangular ports on the bottom of the intake and find some way to turn off the EGR such as EFI or PPE(?) to keep from getting codes.

The intake would *probably* need to be supported somehow also, because that's a lot left hanging off of two bolts on the engine once the EGR valve is gone. You'll also need to splice the heater hoses together once the EGR cooler is gone.
