EGR or Not EGR

[BlazingItaly]

I'm waiting for a new crate engine, it will come without intake. I don't know how to go on with it, keep the old one or get Edelbrock Performer, but EGR or NOT?If I want to keep egr do I need some other parts?
Is a '79 350/350

Thanx for any help

If you have to have a smog inspection i would use an egr or you will fail. The egr reduces cylinder temps witch reduces NOX (nitrates of oxygen) and it is a failable emission

I'd keep the EGR. It reduces exhaust emissions and also greatly reduces the tendency for pinging under part-throttle conditions.

Kinda depends on the engine(Heads), do they have the plumming for the EGR Exhost port ?
