MAF or SD? What is the general opinion of when you should ditch the MAF and go Speed Density? Is it a certain psi or what?...
I will be running 6-8psi on a stock long block for a while...is there any reason I should go SD at that minimal boost?...

With my first set up (P1sc@8 psi on a cammed 346) I ran a SD tune. I never ran a MAF sensor when I was F/I so I can not compare but I do know a SD tune is a more involved tune that makes these motors/PCM read boost. Also I'm running 4" piping and the MAF was a big restrictor.

If you max out the maf sensor run speed density.
Even if you're not maxing the maf SD is safer with a turbo setup as it can compensate fueling if you have a boost spike.
