Default 5.3L Truck MAF?

I think the MAF on my truck is a 85mm. Can I use it on my LS1?

You will have to modify the plug in harness, because on the trucks the IAT is built into the MAF.

We've got one of the truck MAF's on Jason's 422 TA. It corrected a lean condition the custom tuning didn't account for. Its the same replacement part number as the LS6 MAF also. Supposed to be 20% rich on a stock LS1 from what I've been told. The wiring connector is like $15 and you have to get the wiring connector wired just right, there are three MAF wires. Positive feed (marked +), Ground (marked -) and Frequency (marked F). These markings will be on both MAF's and you need to match them up ... plus to plus, minus to minus and frequency to frequency.
