Question Stock MAF or SLP??
I am getting bad MAF codes (rebuilt MAF right now), and I am looking to get either a new AC Delco MAF or something that will increase my performance with a simple plug & play.

Any suggestions?? I need something that will not show any bad codes. Maybe someone has one for sale (new only)?

Thanks in advance-

The SLP maf makes it a pain in the butt to tune with, plus we have seen higher horsepower numbers on our dyno with the GM maf. Bob

My original GM MAF has served me very well at over 500 rwhp. And it will stay there too.

Bought the car with the SLP maf and was going to run it on my stock block until I ge the 370 in and can SD tune it. I guess it looks like I'll have to go straight to the SD on the stock setup!

So all of you say NO to a Granatelli or SLP MAF? So New Old Stock AC DELCO best way to go huh?

What about JET:

NO AFTERMARKET MAF. Yes, any factory maf is the only way to go.
