Default MAF Flow vs. Frequency?

Hello everyone. I am new to this site, but not to ECM/PCM tuning. I am working on a project of running TBI off of a Mass Air Flow sensor. A member of Thirdgen.org supplied me with the calibration for the newer bigger style LS1 sensor. I am actually trying to find the GM calibration used for the MAF sensor used in the 1994-1998 F-bodies and 1996-2002 Vortec trucks. If anyone can point this out it would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

BTW, this is what I found for the 99+ LS1 sensor



It currently runs, but runs VERY LEAN at idle to the point of turning on the Service Engine Soon light (code 44 lean) with the LTFT in the 145 range (108 rich/ 128 no correction/148 lean).

A BLM reading (old LTFT) reading of 145 is roughly like +15% LTFT on the LS1 type PCM.

the 98-02 f-car uses the same maf, so you will need to find the 94-97 maf values.

I know it is kinda on the lean side.

FWIW, here is what it is running. 10:1 355 out of a 4 bolt main Vortec 350(ZZ4 forged crank, Vortec PM rods, and Flattop Hyper pistons), Dart 180s, PRODUCTION LT4 cam, 2" bored edelbrock 3704, BBC TBI with 68# injectors at 30 PSI, 1 3/4" x 3" headers, 2 1/2" duals, X-pipe, 2 1/2" cats, 2 1/2" duals with flowmaster 40 series mufflers and custom prom tuning using the $0D PCM code. It is in a 5,500 lbs G-van with the aerodynamics of a brick. Its getting 18 MPG highway and With the speed density calibration it pulled this reading on the dyno. First run through the full exhaust, second through the cut-outs.
