MAP Sensor for TBSS? I need to find the correct MAP Sensor for a TBSS/NNBS intake manifold. The engine I bought came with a box of loose parts that I have been sifting through. I found a MAP Sensor (see link below), but it doesn't seem to fit on the intake. Does anyone know the correct MAP sensor for the TBSS intake?

Have you tried Rock Auto? Give them whatever year Trailblazer SS you have the manifold for and it should come up.
I just looked up for a 2006 Trailblazer. A dozen different ones for widely varying prices.
But get the AC Delco (2134434, $55.79) one for best results

Both AutoZone and Summit seem to point to this one: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/DFP-PS10000#overview
How do you tell if it's a 1-bar, 2-bar, or 3-bar? Let's say I want to run 20lbs of boost. How many bars is that?

I’m not trying to insult your intelligence here, but from your post there’s not much actual information. Unless you run negative spark values on a build as stated so far, it will inevitably fail. Best case for a build going for that much boost is reducing your SCR to around 8-9:1. Lower the better honestly. I’d lean towards 8:1 for 20#.
You do you though. Take that stock block to 20 and report back.

I had planned on selling it after it gets dyno tested, so I don't know if it will see boost or not. I was just trying to "prepare" it for boost, just in case it gets the juice later on. You're probably right about the fuel and compression at 20lbs of boost. It really won't need 20lbs to make too much power for the street anyway. I think 14-16psi would be more than plenty. I figured that if I was going to buy a MAP sensor, I might as well get one that can be used with boost too.
The only calculator I could find for dynamic compression, uses the valve events at .006" lift. All the cam specs are listed at .050" lift. This engine has the BTR stage-2 truck cam (212/218-113). I'm not sure what the dynamic compression comes out to with this camshaft.
