I bought a MAF conversion kit for the 88 I had, it came with everything that was needed for the conversion. Sorry can't remember the brand, but I think I got it from late model restoration. I think it may have been a Pro-M kit.

Holy shit does pro-m want alot for the kits. I'm gonna need a break down on a home made way to swap it over since my wife won't part with our first born in the name of my stang. Anyone got the run down on how to swap that sd out for the fancy maf. My cars running horribly because of it. I know I gotta change out injectors and get a harness for the injectors and splice the old one and new one together. I also know I gotta get a 1988-93 computer and re pin the existing harness to match the newer ecu and also I gotta out in a second o2 sensor but does anyone have the step by step or the diagrams to make my dream a reality.

I gotta do this or from what I understand the Z303 ford racing cam I ordered won't work properly due to the rpm changes which the sd sensor is preset and can't learn. And the match potted GT40 aluminum heads I traded my second born for already won't make a difference until I change it over. Someone please help a newer muscle enthusiast out please. I never had these problems before I hit puberty( aka when I tuned hondas)

I know it was a while ago when I did the conversion but I didn't have to change injectors or harness, and I didn't need to change out the ecu. When I ordered it I just made sure that it came calibrated for the injectors I was running. I do remeber adding a wire or two to the ecu plug, and having to splice a wire to the fuel pump relay under the seat.
