Your car is telling you that the voltage is too high on the hot wire filiment in relation to the amount air flow through the unit. Clean or change the air filter(if running an oil charged filter do not over oil the filter) and clean the MAF's filiment with MAF cleaner. Remove any debris stuck to the screen on the front of the MAF's air flow intake side.

Re-check your connection at the MAF.
The MAF signal wire is pulled up to 5 volts by the ecm, so an open circuit on the signal wire will result in the MAF high fault.
Since you recently had this apart, it is possible that you bent a pin or somehow degraded the connection.

I cleaned the MAF with MAF cleaner last night. Drove to work and back today, all good. Checked all my connections.
I have owned this vette for 20 years. Seems like I have MAF issues about every two years. My car has 200,000 + miles. Still have the origanal TPS, IAC, and EGR.
Thanks for help
