Default LS1 oil sender ohm range? anyone know?

Look to add an aftermarket pressure gauge for my motor swap. I didn't get a response in the conversions/hybrids forums.

Any know the ohm range of the stock oil pressure sender?

Don't know, but what I did on my S-10 swap was a bench check. I had the sensor wired up to a VOM while adjusting the "pressure" with an adjustable air pressure regulator. I mapped it every ten lbs of air pressure and charted it in Excel.

Is this for an LS1 stock pressure sensor? If so what where your results?

No, not the LS-1 sensor (just trying to give you an idea), mine was the stock S-10 sensor. I'm running a turbo Buick V-6 and wanted my stock S-10 gauges to work. Anyways, here's what my graph looks like.
