Default do you have a cone intake?
the MAF harness wire isin't supported with a cone intake like the stock air box does & the wires are very small & can break without even piercing the plastic shield.....

happened to me & i got those same codes....

Default Sounds like you need a new maf. Best thing to do is to see what your maf is doing on block
003 at idle and while giving it throttle.
