Hi guys,
I need help with my MAF conversion.
Car is an 88GT

I bought a BBK-8004 76mm MAF to replace my factory item (Hitachi E8ZF-12B579-AB).

1st off, the electrical connection is different.
2nd, the housing has different mounting points.
And I cant get hold of any install directions.

Regards,
Daniel

Not sure what that bbk meter is for, but it's not your mustang.
Return it, and buy a PMAS or equivalent.

There is always a chance you can buy an adapter, but i really don't see the point.
