Default MAP sensor relocation (front)

Im installing a Dorman LS6 intake on my C5, i need to relocate the MAP sensor to the front. What do i need to install it on the round cap that is located in the front of the intake! Parts, brands, any website? I already ordered the harness extension

How thick is that cap? A lot of people just drill a hole and screw in the sensor.

That is not the Dorman ls6 intake (part # 615-901) in your picture. That looks like the Dorman ls1 intake (part # 615-900). If you truly did order the Dorman ls6, you don't need any special pieces to mount the MAP sensor on the front. It comes ready to accept it. The ls1 intake in your picture uses a 3 bolt throttle body. The Dorman ls6 uses a 4 bolt throttle body.
