Default Custom fuel guage calibration?

I've searched here for an answer before posting this, but have not found a definitive one. I guess I'll just list the pertinent details to try to make this easier....hopefully. Bottom line: I need to get my fuel guage to read correctly. Here are the details:

-1996 f-body converted from v6 to V8 using 2002 V8 engine harness
-4l80e conversion using 4l60e segment to control via wiring mod.
-2002 ECU
-1998 guage cluster (second temp sensor installed on engine to make temp guage function)
-aftermarket fuel level sending unit (reads Empty@30ohms, Half@102ohms, Full@250ohms)

All sensors test to be functional in HPTuners. The fuel guage reads "Full" with the signal wire disconected, "Empty" with the signal wire connected to the sending unit (no matter the position of the sender float).

All this being stated, what do I need to do to get the fuel guage to function correctly with this mis-matched cluster and ecu? I've tried changing settings in the "guage output" section of HPTuners, but still no change.

Thanks for any help.

You need to do the 411 Van fuel segment swap and I believe reverse the tables.
