I've already browsed through several threads on the LS1 & LT1 MAF sensor mods, but I'm still unclear on a few details. I guess I'll mention what I'm planning to do and hopefully you guys can recommend which to go with.
I'm going to install a K & N cone filter with 3.5" outlet, and construct my own cold air intake from 3.5" aluminum pipe. The other end will connect with a 3.5"-to-3" silicone adapter.
So, I'll be needing a 3.5" MAF pipe & sensor. Is that an LS1 or LT1? Will I need to also replace the connector/pigtail and MAF translator? I seem to remember reading the LT1 requires a different MAF translator, so I might avoid going that route to save money.
I've also seen MAF pipes with & without the honeycomb flow straightener; is it better to have it or not?
Lastly, kind of on a related note, it's supposedly an easy mod to relocate the canister to give more room to the air filter....I've read about it here and even saw some vague pictures, but I can't figure out where people are relocating it to. Apparently on the driver's side frame rail or fender...can anyone show how they relocated it there? Pictures are worth a thousand words! Thanks for the help!
