How much HP loss - removing MAF

On a '95 LT1, how much HP loss do you think if I remove the MAF and switch the computer to speed density?

But will throttle response be not as good? What are the benefits then?

There are no benifits in switching. It's harder to tune and you can't change anything major (heads, cam, etc) without a retune.

Ive heard that there is about a 5 to 10 h.p. lose by switching. Isn't that why the 93's are rated a slightly less h.p.

Huh? The 93's were rated at 275HP, just like the 94's.
