well if you have an LT1 its right before the elbow, if you have an LS1 its behind the bellows of the airbox. Pop it out, unscrew the 4 screws (T20 pattern), and spray it with MAF cleaner

if you got an ls1, just pop the lid off and unscrew the worm clamp/air intake duct at the throttle body. then just spray the MAF from behind the screen

Yeah, but he wants to spray the front of the MAF through the screen to get the sensor wires cleaned, thats where the incoming air is measured.
