The only other MAF that is a one for one swap for a 93 and earlier 5.0 Mustang is the 94-95 Mustang MAF.
The MAF body and sensor are designed to match each other. Therefore you can't swap sensors between different part number MAF bodies and maintain proper calibration. The assembly is designed to match the computer’s internal program, and swapping a different MAF can upset the computer's calibration. In other words, your monster MAF probably won't match the calibration of your 5.0 Mustang computer.
94-95 Mustang GT MAF - $40-$100. It is 70 MM instead of the stock 55 MM on regular stangs built prior to 94. It uses a slip on duct on the side that goes to the throttle body and a 4 bolt flange on the other. You need a flange adapter to fit the stock slip on air ducting that goes to the air box. Wiring plugs right in with no changes. *1 *2
*1.) Metal flange adapter Kurtz Kustomz Motorsports, Inc. KKM Buy the TR70 for $44.95. Or spend some time on eBay looking for one that may fit.
Try AutoZone and ask for 81413 - Spectre / 3 in. Aluminum Intake Mass Air Flow Sensor Adapter at $12.00. You may have to order it online.
*2.) MAF & sensor interchange
The 94-95 Mustang 5.0 MAF & sensor is also found on:
1995-94 Mustang 3.8L F2VF-12B579-A2A,
1994-92 Crown Victoria 4.6L F2VF-12B579-A2A,
1995-94 Mustang, Mustang Cobra 5.0L F2VF-12B579-A2A,
1994-92 Town Car 4.6L F2VF-12B579-A2A,
1994-92 Grand Marquis 4.6L F2VF-12B579-A2A,
Evidently the –A1A, -A2A, AA, etc. on the end of the part number is a minor variant that did not change the operating specs. You should be able to ignore it and have everything work good.

I bought the 1994 Town Car maf as stated above, it is in the list of interchangable
the only variance between the one I bought and the one listed is my numbers are
F2VF-12B579-A1A
thats why i was curious as to whether anyone knows what size it is. I was assuming it would be 70mm, but it is not.
Thanks again

sorry, i didnt realize the others were needed
afh70-04
and underneath that there is 3f03
side note though
car is back together and it is running great i think there is a vac leak somewhere cause i checked vacuum and it is down to 15" also my fuel pressure with vac hose on is just over 20 no vac 39

afh70 = 70mm tube
There is usually some taper to the housings at inlet/outlet, and that may be what you are measuring...
As long as that sensor is in it's original housing... you're good to go.
39psi with the vac off is about right.
Good luck finding the vac leak.... they can be tricky to hunt down.
Thanks for the Info i was thinking it was tapering down to 70mm but it was hard to tell. as far as i know it is the original housing. I am probably just going to change all of the hoses and plugs. would it be a problem to get rid of the vac tree? I have more than enough places on the manifold to put the remainder hoses on.
Thanks for all of the help I truly appreciate it
