Default ZR1 MAP sensor

Sorry if this has been talked about here but I can’t seem to find a good answer.. where can I find a harness adapter to run a ZR1 MAP sensor on my c5?

I've found a couple of answers regarding this questions but the application was different and I’ve seen two different ways to wire the harness if you build one yourself.

you can buy a connector pigtail on ebay for about $20 and you can also use a conversion harness, whichever you prefer but I like wiring in the correct connector personally... you will have to drill out your intake a little bit if it's the stock ls1/6 and shave off the the bolt hole tab on the sensor if you want it to fit in the stock location but nothing major, again this is assuming you are using a stock ls1/6 intake... if you choose to wire it in this is the pin locations

I decided to run it remotely off of a vacuum tree I made!

Do you happen to have the pin out on the stock harness? I know this is probably very simple but as I’ve admitted before, I’m very simple-minded when it comes to wiring.

the green and gray wires are the same function on both sensors so just match those 2 wires from the stock map sensor to the correct pin locations in the pic I posted and the stock low reference wire is tan I believe so match that one to the orange location on the zr1 sensor
