recently i just added a CAI. im trying to find out what is a good size for for both of these parts so i could get even and better flow. 73 maf w/ 65mm or 70mm TB ?

i still want run 19lb injectors until i upgrade my manifold later on.

Depending on what manifold you want to get, a 70mm may be the way to go; or a 75mm if you get the Trick Flow manifold.

There is nothing worse than having to buy parts twice

Just for info. sake...
Stock 5.0 60mm flows 526 CFM
SVO 65mm flows 540 CFM
BBK 70mm flows 726 CFM

A 300 c.i. engine neeeds 521 CFM@6K RPM
But, as stated above, having a 70mm TB with a 60mm manifold opening isn't ideal.

On the MAF side, a stock 94-95 5.0 70mm MAF flows 815 CFM.
The 73mm you mentioned, maybe a C&L, flows 1171 CFM.
But you may want to hold off on the MAF till you get the higher flow injectors.

thanks. i think im going for a 70mm. i was considering a 65mm before but our intakes flow seem to flow bit more than the fox body. plus stock, the maf is 70mm so i think i dont think i need to upgrade until i get 24 lb injectors,intake manifold setup later on. (most likely edlebrock rpm or trickflow)

also im wondering if i want to keep the stock heads/cam and just slap on a s/c or single turbo kit.
