Default EBPV mod

Can anyone help me with the EBPV mod. I don't have the money to buy new parts so I was hopping to do with what I have. I have the turbo and pedastal both pulled out. I just need to know what to do so that I don't have to do it twice. Anything would be great. I think that i'm over thinking it and need someone to almost walk me through it...Oh yeah everything is stock in my truck which is 99 F350


Thanks Guys.

Your going to gut the EBP valve, so you need to cut the valve out of the backing plate. A sawsall or like works good for that.

Once you have the flaper and the rod out of there, take it to Napa and get some freeze plugs that fit...

The pedistal, easiest... Just leave it unplugged.

Your gutting the valve out of there... Re read the first part of what I posted...

Remember that part we bolted to the new turbo when you swapped it... Need to cut that valve out.
