5.0L (1979-1995) MustangTechnical discussions on 5.0 Liter Mustangs within. This does not include the 5.0 from the 2011 Mustang GT. That information is in the 2005-1011 section.
70mm MAF is good. You want to use rags inside the manifold so that shavings dont get in there. Also you dont just want to port you want to make it into a smooth transition, like at an angle from 65mm to 60mm so the air flows clean. Good luck.
W/ a 65mm TB, 75ish should be fine. Most after market MAF's are 73+ anyway, unless you get a Cobra MAF. It won't hurt you, so you'll have room for upgrades later and not have to spend the $ 2x.
