Default 98 to 02 fbody pcm swap now need fuel gauge

i recently did a 98 to 2002 fbody wiring/pcm swap , the wiring went fine but now im trying to figure out how to get the fuel gauge to work. we kept the 98 oem tank. sending units and ohm reading are different from one another.

any possible way to mess with the fuel system tables?
gauge out put, primary volume and secondary volume to get the fuel gauge working?

From what I read a fuel segment has to be loaded in. Question for you when you did the swap did you swap any of the a/c pins?

Shouldn't need to change any wiring around. Need the fuel segment from a 02 express van then put the fuel gauge numbers back words.

wiring was done. it was a 98 car and we did 02 pcm swap. 00 and up = better tuning capabilities.

I changed the gauge output. from express van and inputed inverse numbers. It did not work for me tho.

should i enable gauge using pwm? i would just need a hz frequency
