you can put the screen back into the MAF. I put it back into my 96 vortec. I did this cold air mod to the box and baffle. I could tell a huge difference with the throttle response. As for the screen though it did hurt the mileage. I put it back in and it seemed to be where it was before the screen removal. You don't have to break the screen to get it out. Just remove the snapring from behind the screen carefully with a small screwdriver and then use the handle of the small screwdriver to tap the screen out from the opposite side. Takes a few taps to get it broke free.
