I did the same thing when my TFS was installed...lol I fabbed on up using another one, welded together and then grinded and painted...

easier fix is to contact 50 resto....I think they have one....I know someone makes them to length for our TFS's....

I have an extra extension that screws into the the end of the tube to get you an extra inch. Send me a PM with your address and Ill send it to you. I deleted my EGR and no longer need it.

Click to expand...

If you use the 1 inch extender that Nick is offering you, that will be all you need I think

I think he wants something that will work for now so he can drive his Stang until 95BlueStallion's extender gets to him.

howiefisher, don't hack up your current EGR tube, you'll need it when 95BlueStallion's extender arrives. The exhaust manifolds and the exhaust at that point get really hot, high heat tubing might last for a short bit if it can handle the heat. If you're willing to spend the money on the tubing, try it. If it has enough resistance it might last as a temporary fix.
