mass air flow sensor
Doe anyone know the part number for a mass air flow sensor for a 2001 corvette? also what size tap do I need to clean out the head bolts with or can I us one of the old head bolts? Do I just screw the head studs in to they bottom out or use the same torque as the head bolts?

Both MAF #'s are valid. The 25168491 is made by Delphi (GM supplier) and was used on some '01-'03 cars, probably because of supply shortages of the other one.
If you are using ARP studs then they should have come with instructions. If they didn't then contact your vendor or ARP. You should always use a tap to clean out the bolt holes as it does a much better job and helps insure accurate torque readings. Use the ARP assembly lube for the same reason. I don't know if the ARP thread sealer is needed or desired but I think that would be in their instructions as well as the complete installation procedure
