Fuel sender and aftermarket gauge

Ok I think I've asked this before but I can't find it and I apologize if so.

Any one know the output of the fuel level sender for 88 TC, and is there an aftermarket gauge that will  hook up and read correctly? Without a new sender.
88 Turbocoupe: Coast High Performance 331 kit 28oz balance, Comp XE264HR14 cam, 58cc 185 afr heads, 1.7 roller rockers, Mass-Flo EFI (was POS to setup and their techline is a joke at best)
Full 1 5/8 primary equal length headers, 2 1/2 exhaust, Full manual reverse VB c4 and baked off clear coat "BECAUSE RACECAR"

According to the 88 EVTM, the manual gauge vehicles fuel sending unit readings would be, (60-86 ohms is empty and 8-12 ohms is full). I did some looking on the Summit Racing website and found several different types of gauges, this is one of them by Auto Meter(ATM-4315) its a 2 1/16 diameter gauge. 73 ohms reads empty and 8-12 ohms is full.
