According to the 5.0 Dyno Test book written by Holdener...

A larger MAF on a completely stock 5.0 is worth 5-7hp.

Using the stock 94-95 Mustang MAF is the best option if you are staying with 19lb injectors.

If you need larger injectors, then aftermarket is the only option (other than a custom tune).

ORIGINAL: alec3369
so if i have a mass air meter calibrated for 24lb injectors.... i wont have to change the mass air meter if i go back to 19lbers? (sry to steal your thread)
If your mass air meter is cal'd for 24lb injectors your air supply is going to maintain a air/fuel ratio to support the duty cycle of a 24lb injector, same for 19's. So if the MAF is putting in air for 24lbs and the motors getting fuel from 19lb the motor will run lean.... because of the high air to fuel ratio... there are other things affecting this such as fuel pressure, timing, etc. but thats the basic idea, you can always spend $15 on a new sample tube from C&L for what size injectors you have.
