MAF and TB

95GTS · 03-21-2000, 07:42 PM

What MAF and what throttle body should I go to on the ol' 4.6? I don't have a supercharger on it (for right now

). Stock heads and intake. Thanks

Your 4.6L comes with a stock 80mm MAF, which is a great size. However, there is a post in the middle which takes up a lot of space. If you go to mustangworld.com, there are instructions to remove to post with a hacksaw and a dremel tool in their "How-to" section. Thats what I did, and it worked great.
As far as the TB, 70mm is a good size. There are instructions at mustangworld for that too.

Yeah, I did the post cut & TB first as well. Works well but you'll need a new MAF when you go Supercharged. Trust me, It's worth the $!
