You should block it off at the head by removing the lower intake and using the flat part of a razor blade with RTV ont he EGR passages from the heads.

Then you will need a custom tune really to properly tune for the lack of inert gas at part throttle settings.

I agree with mustang5l5 however, fordfuelinjection.com sells something that plugs in where the egr valve did to tell the computer the egr valve is pretty much permanently shut. This isn't the best way of fooling the computer but it does work.
