Default 02 Vert custom MAF

I’ve had the car for about 3 months now and have been doing things here and there. Did my HB, bolt and belts, added some floor mats, and just finished cleaning and oiling the Blackwing it came with. I also was able to clean up some of the cowl where the filter sits. The filter probably hasn’t been cleaned or oiled since new 😱. I was also lucky enough to get a stack of receipts for this car, and one of them was for the Blackwing and a Granatelli modified MAF sensor, which as you see in the pics, has custom markings on it and no screen. Receipt dated September 2002. If anyone has any experiences with that or knowledge of that MAF sensor “modification”, please comment. Some expensive **** for 19 years ago!

I also took off the carbon fiber air bridge……damn! ACTUAL carbon fiber. Weighs about as much as a piece of paper towel 😆. Enjoy your Vettes all 👍🏻😎🏎🏎🏎

Hard to tell without seeing the MAF by itself, but you said it was red, and my Granatelli was red, too. Mine was also "optimized" for Nitrous, since I had Nitrous back then (2004). Never had any problem with it, and I had the Blackwing, too.
