Gary Lewis Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Nice truck. Unfortunately it is the 49-state version with EEC-IV and bank-fire with speed density. You can tell that by the two hoses running right up to the air box. An EEC-V with SEFI and MAF would have the MAF sensor where the red circle is and a single hose running towards the engine. Not that there is anything wrong with EEC-IV, but EEC-V is more forgiving when you make changes and has OBD-II for maintaining it down the road.

I was wondering about that but couldn’t tell from the pictures. But I don’t know if I’ve seen a 460 with a MAF. Your circle helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's an EEC-V air box lid with the studs for mounting the MAF sensor. From there a single hose goes out to about where you see the connector is in the pic above. There's a Y there that goes from the single large hose from MAF sensor to the two smaller hoses that go to the throttle body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
