Default Best MAF Sensor?

I believe I need to replace the MAF sensor on my 89, any suggestions? any to avoid? go with OEM specs, or is there an upgrade? I see new on eBay for about $80

If you've done the test to know you need the MAF, get the OEM part.

But you should also replace the two relays whenever you change the MAF. They are behind the battery on the firewall. They're cheap.
