Default slp mass air flow sensor on a lt1?
Hey guys there I found a very cheap ls1 85 slp mass air flow sensor. Could this be made to work on a lt1 car with some tuning or no? I know I am no where to needing this but its so cheap to maybe put away for later.

I'd spend the money on something else. Stock MAFs are the way to go and have been able to support big HP.

No it wont work. Why do you want to replace your stock one?

By the time the MAF is a restriction most people go to a speed density setup. You are no where close to that.

Buy it and sell it some sucker for 10x who is convinced it is a worthy gain when in reality its not. Capitalism rules.

it wont work on an LT1 and like the others said, Stock MAF's are plenty capable of high HP numbers and fast track times.

I got one on my stock ECM LT1, there IS a trick to make it work.


I was told by a reliable source it was worth 3-5 rwhp over a stock MAF and was dyno proven.
