EGR delete

I have the EGR block off plate for my 04 and im curious as to if this would help the prevention of blown heads. I know its not a life saver, but I just looking to a little more borrowed time till I can afford the labor for head studs. Im also looking for the easiest way to get to the up pipe to install the delete.

It won't help your head gaskets at all but will prevent you from blowing EGR coolers...

Well, thats good to know. I have already gone threw a cooler, 3 vavles, and a intake manifold. That was all warranty work though. The best way I have found so far is by removing the passenger tire and going in that way. Does that sound right?

I dropped the passenger wheel, wheel liner, and downpipe. After that the top bolts were a pain (read: thick, short arms and big hands).
