well i got my kit yesterday the 76mm kit and with the meter housing there was a small rubber ring like the ones on the tube but it is smaller,.....what is this used for??? and also on the bottom of the meter there are 3 holes that look like it would bolt to a bracket or something..? do i have to make my own bracket???

IDK what that ring is for. Throw it away.

The holes are for the factory bracket that holds the MAF solid from underneath. Maybe yours is missing or laying under your old MAF.

I didn't use the bracket once I removed it. Just annoying.

hmmmm i never paid to much attention to my old maf all i remember is its in the plastic housing i will have to go look at it.

The holes are for a bracket but that bracket is a C&L deal not factory. The factory maf holder is the plastic airbox. Both are about as far from being anything alike as you can get.

good luck with the C&L.

so i need to make my own bracket then...or just tighen the clamps and let it hold its self??

blksn955.o · Mar 9, 2007

I just tightend the clamps and keep and eye on mine. The new setup keeps coming loose though...

IIRC the bracket thing can be bought sep.

Just looked at the C&L site...the 94-95 "kit" now has some kind of platic airbox that the maf mounts too and shields the filter from hot air...they prob. use the same casting but assume your running the plastic box thing.

oh yeah mine came with that sheild i guess i didn't pay attention as to it hooking to the maf though.....

i believe the o-ring goes in between the electronics of the meter and the housing...it seals the electronics on the insinde of the sample tube

my mustang had a bracket that bolted to the bottom of my maf and went to the frame underneath......

....mine is a lot bigger then that... the rubber ends where it slides onto the tb and maf it just fits inside them....its exactly like them too just a hair smaller and about half the lenght.....im thinking it might go on the tb since its a lot smaller.

so was i supposta get a bracket?? did i get shorted?

trav you dont need the bracket. Every stang ive owned that bracket has been tossed, if you really want one I have a pile of 5 or 6 you can help yourself to one.
I didnt even use their pipe set up and just fabbed my own. With my new P-mas it just sits in the fender well, no bracket either.

the ring you are talking about goes on the throttle body to help make you for the mis-match in size. it goes inside of the other silicone band that connects the inlet pipe to the throttle body.
