Default '99 Ls1/'01 Ls1 Maf Queston...

Will a MAF off of a 99 LS1 motor use the same electronics as a 2001 or is the programming different? In other words are the MAFS interchangeable or does a custom tune need to be done after the swap? Thanks!

should be the same. easy way to check, compare the part numbers.

from your other post, if you are going the 90/90 route you may want to consider this.

SD is another viable option.

EDIT:
Just re-read your post. If you are chaning a 75mm for a 75mm then yes, they should be interchangable. If you are upgrading from a 75mm to 85mm, then you will need to do some tuning. Tuning a MAF is not my favorite thing to do.

Thanks for the info...I've already got an SLP 85mm MAF to run with the 90/90 set up. I was asked by a guy who has an '01 that wanted some info about the MTI ported MAF I'm selling. I wasn't sure if there were any diff. in the '99 thru '01 LS1's other than some intake and exhaust changes GM made...

I gave a guy my old 98 one, and he has an 01 and it worked fine, mine was descreened, and somehow he picked up 12rwhp, maybe the dyno was screwy, but it worked fine, and your car looks pretty sick by the way

Yes, his 98 maf, worked on my 01. I still don't understand how I picked up that much, by swapping mafs while on the dyno. I mean 10rwhp is like a lid, and sure noticed a difference when I put a lid on, but not with the different maf. So I think something was screwy as well. But I am back to my screened one now actually.
