Ok so I'm getting ready to install my maf translator. I have the newer 2.01 version and I had a mas from a 97 lumina. So I get everything hooked up and start the car. It runs like ass, sounds like it has a stutter box,not revving over 3k rpm. I check w/ the palm and come up with air meter. So I'm like crap, I guess I need another mass. So I go to autozone and pick up one for a 96 caprice v8 LT1. So I get it home and reinstall everything again. Same problem as before. I'm pretty sure the new mas is good,so I call ramchargers. The guy tells me I HAVE to have one from a LT1 caprice or impala SS. So I check autozone online and see that the 97 camaro LT1,caprice LT1,and impala SS all have the same part #, WTF? So my question is does anyone run a non LT1 mass on their dsm and not have any problems? I know what the guy said but I've also heard about people getting brand new translators and them not work right out of the box.
