Interesting MAF mounting

The new Hot Rod Magazine had an interesting way to mount a GM MAF. They took and mounted a cut down late model GM MAF, above a 4 brl throttle body. Also, used a Frequency to voltage coverter, in the deal.

Intresting, velly intresting....

this system with the gm maf is not new. it is to the market but ive been familair with it for w hile.. there are some problems with putting the maf there like turbulence. and like any pro-m products the converter box seems to suffer from infant mortality alot.

but the converter box could be put to use on a tpi car if there wasnt such a huge differnce in input impedence between ford and gm

I've had engines back fire numerous times, thur the late MAFs with no damage. Makes for a interesting log file when it happens during crank. If the 2 bar area, isn't right, can make for a quick flood scenario.

I was referecing that they made a frequency/voltage converter (good!) but that its unreliable, and cant be used with a GM ecm (not so good...).
