Default 3bar map offset values

So, I had 3bar ls1 style map sensor that took a **** (efi source) and was wondering if could use the brick style gm 3bar without tuning? I would have to haul my truck back to the tuner if so. When i bought the efi source one, they told me any gm 3bar values would work; since they had no cal data with the sensor.

the sensor came apart, was not epoxied properly, and i plugged it up with too much gorilla glue putting it back together. i will just order 2 of them just in case this happens again. kinda sucks cause i wanted to drive it at the cruise we had yesterday.
