    you can also pull them off and trace them onto a sheet of metal and cut out your own block offs.

    should i get a new stocker???
    Im for it because it cant hurt

    what do you guys think?
    want to know a trick... start your car, take a hammer and tap on your MAF, and your car stumbles then your MAF is bad Oh and GM made it where the MAF has its own cleaning system in when you turn off the vehicle, the wire becomes very hot in about 10 seconds after engine shut off to make the MAF last longer

    ahaha, there are aftermarket kits that are available, not sure for F-Bodies but you can swap your MAF for a MAP sensor, does the same thing with reading the air going in the intake manifold.

    I cleaned mine with the appropriate MAF cleaner.. 8 bucks a can.. does like 50 MAFs...
    I have to get gaskets for egr and air.. i thought I would go ahead and wait for the nice $15 kit.. because.. i have to go to town.. by sheet metal.. buy gaskets.. and high temp paint.. and go to all that trouble
    Ill miss my loud ass air pump.. i fire up my car and people ask if its turbo.. i say yeah just to scare them.. but its frikin annoying because its loud while crusing and it makes my headlights and interior lights dim when it kicks on/off.


    Are there any website showing the removal of the airpump??

    Plus..I polishing that maf took a minute.. a dremil tool, and a 3 dollar tub of what 01SOMSS recommends in of his posts..

    I wonder if my aluminum flowmaster will polish up the same way...
