This weekends project ( if my parts are all here by then)

Now for my questions, My car was a 273 2bbl from the factory, but someone in the history of my car put a slant in it.

How do i determine if I currently have a slant or v-8 throttle cable?

can I just put an egr block off plate over the egr hole?

Any tips for doing the conversion?

I tried to find the simplest Carb I could as my slant is an older one with no smog stuff Etc. This carb has a fuel inlet, a PCV connection, and a Vac. advance.

i know u can put an egr block off plate on, i did it to my six when i had it, i just cut the egr line off pinched it together then brazed it shut worked really good :) What year of car do you have, if its the old non cable design(lever) you will need a cable, im unsure about if the cables are different slant vs v8.
good luck with it all
