Exclamation Will an LQ9/LQ4 MAF work on an LS1?

Like the title says, will an LQ9/LQ4 MAF work on an LS1? My friend needs a MAF sensor ASAP for an LS1 the he has in his 240sx, and I'm trying to help him figure out if he would have any problems using either an Lq4 or Lq9 MAF on his stock motor/stock ecu 2002 LS1. Quick replies would be appreciated.

Thanks

One other question he asked...does he need the IAT sensor for everything to work properly?

Thanks again fellas!

Yup it will work its an upgrade many have used including myself but will need 3 to 5 wire ls1 style adapter and will need to be rescaled for the particular vehicle!!!

Mine's going on a 93 firehawk (ram air) with an LS1 computer and a new build.
No matter what I do, it will be a custom mount and tune so it's no biggie.

Thank you for the info, I reworded my search and found plenty of threads.
I picked up a MAF and the adapter I needed.
I'll be sure to give the tuner a heads-up.
