Re: Air Intake parts to convert 1986 TA from MAF to MAP
In all reality, you don't need to change any of the intake duct work to run a map. The maf sensor is just a tube then. You could just run and open element on the front of the TB if you don't mind hot air going to the engine (I wouldn't go that route myself) Otherwise, just look for a 90-92 firebird intake. Both v6 and v8 are the same. They make it to the classified boards every so often. You could put a WTB for one if you feel so inclined.
