Ford has a 351. Mass air. I'm gonna try to explain it in one page. When the air comes in the intake the mass air meter, takes the tempature of the air coming through the filter. It the sends a message to the ecu, which sends a message to the fuel injectors to either give it more fuel if the air is colder and moving faster, or less fuel if the air is warmer or comin in slower. If anyone else can explain it better please do so. But that is pritty mush the basics of a mass air set-up. Hope this helps.
