Egr
I noticed the EGR tube coming off the headers is rubbing on the fuel lines, not a good thing with the heat. there is thermal compound and tape on it right now and doesnt seem to be an issue but i dont like it. if i used a tube bender and just gave it a little tweak and rerouted the hose does anyone think it would be an issue....
and has anyone ever done this before?

This is what i was talking about, this gets hot as hell and its right on top of the fuel line. its coming from the headers, i haven't seen it before but my buddy said it was for the egr for emmisions

its for the air system. it just heats the catalytic convertors on start up for efficiency. it can be removed but would require a tune. if your careful and dont kink or break it, a little bending should be fine

You can also get a block off plate and just get rid of it. You will need a tune (mail order, hand held, or dyno) to keep the SES light from kicking on.

nevermind just caught the post where he did say it was getting hot.

Yep, when I added my LS6 intake to my LS1 I was able to get rid of that garbage. No EGR. was running SLP Long tubes with rear o2 delete (replaced with a government un-approved straight pipe or mid-pipe)
Also, the composition of the cat itself is the catalyst (hence the name), not something injected into the system, to address the last post.
