Default 6.2L.. which MAF do I need?

I have a 6.2L waiting to go in my T/A and am planning on running a Nick Williams 92mm TB. Now, I just need to figure out what MAF I need.


PS: I'm going to TRY to use my current SCC airbox. Only problem w/ this is the inlet for it is ~78mm, so there's going to be a bottle neck. Since the car is DDed, I'm not really worried about getting every ounce of power out of it and from all accounts, the power "loss" is going to come in the higher RPM range which isn't a big factor to me. I figured we'd make a dyno pull w/ the airbox on there and then take it off and see how bad the difference was. If it's quite significant down low, I'd look at other routes for the airbox, but for the time being, I'm going to run it as is.

Neither, go with an SD tune.

I'm running the SLP 85 MAF with the Fastoys lid and a cut down SLP smooth bellows all connected to a Holly 90 TB and a N20 plate. Tight fit but it works well.

Are you running the 6.2 with an E38 and DBW Nick Williams TB? If so, why not go with a 100mm Lingenfelter?

I think the last time I had a MAF on an LS was back in 2004
