Codes P1171 & P1174

So far all the advice I've gotten on here has been spot on, so figured I should ask about these codes as well.
2003 Disco II SE with just over 80K miles.
P1171 and P1174 both show up together after about 100 or so miles of highway driving. They show up faster if I reset it and then just drive around town, but takes a lot longer for them to come on doing the freeway only.
Any idea where I should start troubleshooting?
Not sure if it matters, but a couple possible related or just coincidental things before the codes came on:
1. The Transmission was destroyed by the front drive shaft failing, so I did have all 4 02 sensors unscrewed and out of the exhaust during the new transmission swap. Codes didn't come on for at least 3-400 miles after that transmission swap though.
2. I took it to Nevada on some dirt off-road type trails, nothing too serious, but lots of dust and rough road for sure. I read if could be the MAF sensor, so I took it apart and sprayed cleaner on it. Didn't seem to help at all, but then I read somewhere on one of these forums that you shouldn't clean the MAF on these so...not sure if I screwed it up somehow by spraying it?
Thanks for any suggestions.

I found these codes were related to the vacuum system for the SAI. Fixing my rubber hoses and the little connectors sorted it.

I worked on these codes for the better part of two months. I replaced the vacuum hoses, PVC valve, MAF and cleaned the IACV. One other thing to do is to make sure that the intake manifold is tightened down properly. One of the other posters here, Britishautoworks here and I chewed on this for quite a while. One interesting thing to note is that others have stated that it may in some cases take sometime fro the ECU to get "adjusted" to a new MAF and other components.I also adjusted both the throttle cable and cruise control cable to the exact RAVE specs

Definitely a vacuum leak somewhere after the MAF. A smoke test can help you find the leak. You can find out how to do a smoke test using a cigar by doing a quick forum search or a lot of shops will have "professional" smoke test machines that can apply more pressure in the system to better reveal leaks. A friend chased these two codes for a couple years and never found the source. I now expect the problem with his truck was the injector O-rings. But he sold the truck before we tried replacing them.
