My gosh, most of you people are missing the entire purpose of the Granatelli MAF.
The Granatelli MAF has a CALIBRATED sensor. Thus, it should report ACCURATE values and work similarly to a stock MAF. The Granatelli MAF is in no way similar to a stock MAF with ported housings. I've done some testing of my Granatelli MAF and have found it to be at least extremely close in its calibration.
FWIW, I'm currently using a Granatelli MAF on my 450hp n/a 96SS and intend on using one on my fully built 383 supercharged 94Z28 (when the new engine goes in).
SiDeWayZz28, if you got it for a $100 I don't think you went wrong at all. In fact, if all these replies are scaring you, I'd be happy to give you $100 for it so you'll have no "worries"
However, with all that I've said, I don't think the Granatelli is your 100% complete answer to winning the races you have coming up. You may get a little out of the Granatelli but I doubt it will be enough to make a difference in all those races

I'll also vouch for the GMS. I bought one used on ebay and have nothing but good to say about it. Combined with the nice short, staight intake tract of a WS6, a smooth bellows, and a 52mm throttle body it works very well. I noticed an immediate SOP difference even before the other mods. Plus, it is a few pounds lighter than the stocker so you're very slightly improving weight distribution. But like you said every little bit counts.
