need an EGR blockoff plate for my headers but don't feel like buying one (5 or 6 bucks plus shipping), I can get the measurements off my car is anyone can help out, I think it's 1/4 inch think.

Also if anyone has some 1/2 inch-ish thick aluminum then I wanna try a little project with that (poly trans mount = around 1/2 inch shorter than stock v6 mount, shimming with washers is FTL so I wanna try out a spacer)

Thanks for the help...

You can make an egr blockoff plate using the metal from an old beer can. I'm sure you gotta have a few empties lying around, you drunk fidget!

and ironically the headers just happened to come with an egr gasket. I'll get that to you tim, you up for the spacer project too?

UBG I doubt that would work here, as they're only got 1 bolt on top to hold it on, so I think some tin can would just go flappin around
