Default EGR adapter for long tubes

Does anyone know where I can get an adapter for my EGR for my long tubes? Both the long tube EGR hole and the EGR tube are female threaded and they don't connect.

Better call the shop that installed them because they lost the piece.

I gave them just the long tubes. When I first got the long tubesI checked everywhere in the box from Mac and I couldn't find the adapter. I gave the shop the long tubes and they asked for the adapter and I told them I must not have gotten one so they plugged off the EGR hole in the long tube for me. I need to order another one or something.

The piece you are looking for is still in the drivers side exhaust manifold.

Wow, I'm retarded. I just went out to the garage and dug out the stock exhaust manifold and it was sitting right in it. Thanks man.

I just have a question. Did you have any problems with your Dipstick? I brought my car to the shop and they're saying something about the EGR Valve and the dipstick maybe being in the way or something.

I need a new shop to go to.

Well I got a Ford headbolt kit and it came with a dip stick tube so I gave that to the shop that did my LTs but they said it wasn't for my car so they reused the stock one and there wasn't a problem.

And yeah I need a new shop to go to also. The shop I went to yelled at me for fixing a coolant leak in their parking lot (took me 15 mins tops). They said they have a buisness to run so they don't want people being mechanics in their parking lot. After spending 270 dollars there and being 20 years old they deff should not have yelled at me like I was a teenager in high school or something.

I got the same head bolt kit the dip stick was a bitch. I got it in had to run it under the motor mount but it wouldnt bolt up so I have it zip tied for now. I wish I would have kept my stock one.

I broke my stock one taking it out when doing my heads. The new one was such a pain in the ***, I just plugged the hole. Now I have no dipstick until I buy a new flexible tube.
