? New intake ?
Ok, it seems that the intake on my truck is being monitored by the air flow sensor and ECU. What would happen if I replaced it with a universal intake that consists of just a pipe and filter? The pipe runs straight to the throttle intake and the other end has the filter on it. What would happen? Thanks.

i dont know about your 86, but my 2.7L doesnt run without the MAF. I bumped it off once when i was wrenching, and the engine killed. i think the ecu needs an airflow signal at least.

what are you doing? are you talking about making a chromed tube or something? a s/c will have all its own intake plumbing with a built in provision for the sensor... as will an aftermarket intake system.. if you are making you just need to reuse the sensor....
