SLP used the 85mm truck MAFs and just added a resistor to them to "trick" the fbody computer so recalibration was unnecessary. it is the same MAF minus the resistor. if you do not have tuning software, you can't use it until you can tune for it. If it has the resistor, then you should be fine.

oh yeah, forgot to mention that the resistor is soldered between 2 of the grid wires if you look down the MAF. If you doint see the resistor, then you are looking at a truck MAF.
