    the screen is there so the air is evenly distributed as it goes through the maf. It is possible to get false readings and to mess up the maf. It essentially does nothing for performance.

    the stall and the cam should be your next upgrades. but dont waste the money on the rockers, the stockers are fine. if you plan on staying n/a throw a set of 4:10s in there and the truck will fill a whole hell of alot faster.

    I had the circle d tb converter and the driving manners are much like the stock verter, real nice stall for the money, would still have it if I didnt go with the 80e

    oh, sorry. didnt mean to insult your intelligence then. then yeah, it kinda feels like dumping the clutch a bit if you foot stall it up all the way. mines only a 3200 but i bet foot stalling a 4000 feels like popping the clutch!

    not true at all. the same maf which is sold thru SLP has no screen as the SLP maf, the same maf that comes stock on the LS6 corvettes dont have a screen on them. Ive always ran my maf's screenless and never once had issues
