Default Need spacer to replace MAF

I am running a speed density tune in my 2003 C5 and want to completly remove the MAF from the system. However, I am having a hard time finding a peice to fill it the gap. I was trying to find a 3 1/2" diameter exhaust pipe but it would have to be flared on both ends. I cant find anyone who has a machine to flare 3 1/2" pipe.

An old MAF sensor that I could gut would work great.

If anybody knows who could make the pipe or if they have an old MAF sitting around, I would love the help. Would be willing to pay for either.

If a 6"x3.5" aluminized steel coupling would work for you, try this part number through SUMMIT RACING.

Thanks for the info. I went to WWW.INTAKEHOSES.COM and they have a 3 1/2" peice but I still need to flare the ends. It needs to be 3.6" OD on one end and 3.8" OD on the other (something like that, I need to write it down next time I have it appart.) Close wont do it. If I can find someone who can flare a 3 1/2" pipe, I am in buisness.

If all goes according to plan I get my vette back tomorrow with a new MAF, its a '97 and I asked to get the old part back to examine. Don't known your time plan but you can have mine after I play with it for a day or two. I'm in northwest FL, near Pensacola.
