How are you going to make it work I bought one too and don't know how to hook it up to make it read correctly. Mine is a fuel level guage

GM should be 0-90ohms.
Does this apply to all the plastic LS1 tanks too?

I can't remember exactly what the OHMs are for a stock fuel level sending unit, it's something like -243 - +35 ohms. When I did mine Autometer didn't make a gauge compatible with the stock F body intank fuel level sending unit and I don't think they do now either. I had to unplug the stock unit and use a 0-90 OHM Jazz fuel level sending unit and an Autometer 2 1/16" Ultralight fuel level gauge and route new wires for it. Not to bad when your replacing all the stock gauges with aftermarket units.

If it's a swing arm type I don't think you will have enough room in the tank for it to work becuase it will hit the stock fuel pump.

99+ LS1's (plastic tanks) are 33 Ohms Empty and 240 Ohms full. Autometer sells a gauge with these Ohms settings but it is backwards. I have heard autometer has a reverse aircore they will install in the gauge for $12 and make it work with 99+.
