Default Where to put a MAF??????
Do they make a 4" MAF? and where is the best place to put it the MAF before or after the blower. I have a ysi on a l/c 383 and plan to run15-18#s. Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

The MAF has to go after the blower. If it's intercooled, I ran mine here...(see attachments)

It's just behind the air dam...below the radiator fans.

I just dont want to spend the money on a aftermarket EFI yet. I have seen many people make power with them. I was told that lt1's have a ******* hell of a time tuning one without it. Thanks for the responses though.
