I just put a set of hooker long tubes on my car......they are running completely open....

I started the car and the dummy light came on.....I scanned it and found error #48 MAF system malfunction....I hooked it up to my computer and saw the maf was measuring air just fine.....I check the wiring and its all ok......what could the problem be? :shock:

Try and surf around at http://www.bfranker.badz28.com/fbody/guides.htm
There are a couple of other sites on there that may help you.

very stupid...The 12volt Power supply pin on the MAF sensor was bent over...

I am so very very stupid
I was just about to tear my whole car apart to inspect the wiring. has the tools out and everything..

What i dont get is how could LT1 Edits free scanning utility be able to tell me how much airflow the motor was getting if the MAF had no power?
