Exclamation MAF Conversion?!

Well i just ordered a ford racing F cam with 1.6rr and a edelbrock rpm intake manifold. I finally realize that i need to convert to mass air in order for my car to run with the new cam. Now my question is where can i get a cheap mass air conversion kit?how hard is it to do?Or does any 1 have one for sale?Oh by the way my car is a 87 gt
Thanks!

Cause pretty much all you need is a new computer prefferably code-A9L, obviously a new intake with your preferred maf, and the wiring harness. Check this place, they have 2 different ones for a manual http://ampperformance.com/ford/xcart/home.php?cat=269

it is NOT required to change over, the car will run. they just say that. i ran the f cam in my 88 before i swapped it to maf. it'll run till you get the money to do the swap
