looking through the gauge selection on Summit, going to order some new gauges for the truck, am leaning very hard towards building my own dash. Looking at fuel level gauges and there are a couple different options for them due to resistances on the sender. So what is the ohms/resistance of the fuel level senders on an '82 K30? or are they all the same? I'd hate to order the wrong gauge. this is the one I was leaning towards. thoughts?

The sender range on a square body is 0 to 90 ohms. This is a pretty universal number.

you'd think they'd put a switch on the back so you would have more than one option.
