Aftermarket fuel gauge

Anyone know if there is a fuel gauge that will work with a spectra 80 10 ohm sending unit which was a stock replacement. Its a 68 chrysler newport and is it possible to use the spectra unit with an aftermarket gauge

Pull the sender out and test it with a DVOM meter... Thats the best way to get it sorted out....

So the gauge determines what resistance the sending unit should read?
