Sorry, forgot to mention I used the VS Series 3 engine harness as I couldn't be bothered figuring out how to adapt the engine loom to the body loom as they use totally different plugs. VT Series 1 V8 and VS Series 3 V8 use the same PCM, slight difference in engine looms but the body loom/bcm is very different.

I should avoid posting anything early in the morning...

In my opinion, even though they are hard to find, the VS 3 engine loom is the easier option for a MAF 5L in a VS. Note they only run one O2 sensor.

Otherwise go with what antus posted.
