The easiest way to do it is to remove the intake manifold from the car and just remove the butterfly plates from the end of the upper intake runners. After you do that, just block off the vacuum line to the valve on the end and put the manifold back on the car. If you want to really delete the whole system, there are a few screws holding the shaft in place. Remove those and the valve from the intake manifold, but be sure you block/seal every hole from the where the shaft ran or you will have a vacuum leak due to those holes.

now when you say to remove them from the runners is it where it bolts to the head or where it bolts to the intake plenum

Sorry I took so long to reply I forgot I gave you a response lol. They are in the upper intake (the four runners) about an inch from the head side. When you take the intake manifold off...look in those runners, you will see the butterflies bolted onto a shaft that runs through there.

now since the motor is a 93 i was told they didnt have the valves in 93-94
