So, on that note about the EGR valve, I do not have one installed. I did purchase one. It's got the two take off ports, one to the carb (?), and one to the vacuum advance on the distributor.
The problem is that I couldn't get the plug out of the manifold to install it. Impossible in the car. See where I just plugged the vacuum advance into a port right on the manifold. I know that this is not best, but I figured I'd need it to drive the car.
Anyways, since it looks like I may pull the manifold, It will be much easier to remove that plug on a bench.
I'll have to check again which manifold gaskets I bought. I've got this combination of the '68 manifold on the 6X heads, block year unknown WA. Carb gasket as shown with the '70 carb.
