I heard that the truck maf have an intergrated IAT sensor and are a little different than the fbody. GM has two different part numbers one for 6.0 and zo6 and one for fbody.

Truck MAfs are the 5 wire (IAT included variety). If you spliced the right plug into your wire harness (and ignored the IAT pins), it should work fine. You could grab the MAF tables from the year vehicle you snatched the MAF from.

Ok cause the guy at autozone said "we dont have one for a camaro but the truck one will fit" so I bought it anyway cause mine was severly screwed and now my LTFT are lean. Could that be the problem cause I didnt even know about the internal IAT in them. Just pluged it in and went. Seems to drive and run ok.

the truck maf and Z06 are damn near the same both 85mm only the z06 has no screen from the factory

yes the wiring harness is different and it for sure will need tunning on the tables swapped mine out on the dyno( talking about the Z ) and it went into the 10:1 a/f

had swaped it at the track and ed put a tune in it for the maf and gained almost 2th's just from a swap and the correct tables ( well it was close )
