the way i hooked my egr up is i took one of the vacume switches from the stock carb.I also used the stock thermo sensor on the bottom of the rad.I hooked one side of the thermo sensor to a swttched +12v, hooked the other to one pole of the vacume switchn and the othe pole to ground.Then i hooked up my vacume lines.Now the egr only works when the engine is up to temp.

That looks alot better then the one I made. I noticed that my truck idled and ran better when I took off the egr and put the plate on.
