Our Caballero has a cheap (probably the cheapest available) triple gauge setup with oil, temp, volts. I'd like to get the factory gauges and put them in the dash, but. The factory oil pressure gauge tops out at 60 PSI, and our motor frequently exceeds that. I've seen that there are different sending units for 0-60 and 0-80 for various GM vehicles. Does that mean the sending unit and gauge should match in range? In other words, an engine has 40 PSI, the sending unit is 0-80 PSI and the gauge is 0-60 PSI would show right in the middle of the gauge at an indicated 30 PSI?
So would using a sending unit for 0-120 indicate 1/2 of the actual PSI on a 0-60 gauge?
