Im not too sure, but I think C5 Z06's came with 85mm MAF's so since you have that motor with upgrades thats where I would start.

you don't have a MAF? i suggest getting a MAF then.

stock LS1 MAF will work fine.

No motor setup didn't have one. Just dropped motor in. Any benefits to go with the 85mm MAF?

Bigger MAF = more air and less restriction in the air tract = more power can be made.
