Not a problem. I'm not doing the dyno until I get the ported throttle body and LS1 MAF installed. Should have that next week.

Ya from my testing so far, the L67 throttle body really sucks. . . Like you didn't know that already. . .

I plan to cut out the MAF post and smooth the inlet. That will at least allow more flow. The LS1 MAF is external to the throttle body.

The huge block the MAF post attaches to is the biggest hindrance to air flow, a ZZP Stage 2 bored throttle body is about as good as you can get and not adapt to a completely different design.

That'* what I'm doing. Except I'm removing the MAF all together. The LS1 MAF is larger yet, so wont restrict the flow inside the throttle body.
