    Welcome to CHR. In post #2 Marks914 shared that your ohm range should be 450 to 29.6, where 450 ohms is cold, 29.6 ohms is full range hot, and 175F is 99 ohms. I believe that's the "standard" range for US gauges. If it were me I would visit my NAPA store and check out their universal sender with an ohm gauge at the counter. Failing there I'd call Classic Instruments and see if they either have a sender that works, or can guide you to someone who might. Another option might be calling Summit Racing - they list about a dozen different senders, but their catalog does not give the ohm range.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
