Default How should it idle with these disconnected?

Getting ready to fire up my build. My PCM has be tuned to the engine and I had them leave the MAF and IAT in the program. I don't have a MAF yet or the IAT sensor. Once I fire up my engine what should I expect? Any hunting, high idle etc.... Or should it run good? I do have my digital dash hooked up to the check engine light, so I expect to see that. But should expect any erratic engine operation?

Thanks

It will likely idle pretty high for a while, then really low. It's not consistent how it will idle/run though so you can't say for sure.

Another question? IS the plug connectors there same for 98-00 and 01-02 MAF's? I have a 99 harness (I think) and an 01 PCM. I know there are two different MAF's out there so was just wondering.

For F-bodies they are all the same 3 terminal connector (99-02). The Corvette went to the 5 terminal MAF in 01 (like the trucks use).
