1980 Pontiac LeMans Station Wagon - G-T-faux (stuck with it, and can't shake it... like a bad case of herpes)

Ordered up a Spectre MAF housing and an adapter harness today - I am tired of speed density. I will be running an LS3/7 blade sensor with a laminar airflow straightener to true up the signal.

Just got myself all caught up on your thread... Great job!
I'm starting to regret pulling the A/C out of my car and putting the heater-only box in.
Going down the road is great, but once you stop moving it gets hot in there FAST!!!
I might have to get my windows tinted to help keep from cooking me in the sun!

Why did I come in here again? ...right to sum up the weekend's activities.

Loaded the diff up with the 85W-140 Lucas gear lube and a bottle of Dana LSD juice provided by Strange, touched up the cover, and finished shimming down (3/8") and rotating forward the rear swaybar.

evidently it's getting harder to make a sleeper out of a wagon!

Started prepping my big boy MAF. LS3/7 blade MAF sensor, Spectre 4" adapter, and a Saxon PC large cell honeycomb screen.

The honeycomb improves laminar air flow across the sensor as the blade style MAFs are very sensitive to turbulance.
