Exclamation Fuel level gauge trouble

Im in the process of making a new gauge cluster because I had constant problems with my stock one so I just decided to make my own. I already wired up a water temp, tach, and oil preassure. My question is about the gas level gauge. I'm going to buy an aftermarket gas gauge because my old one I lost the needle for it and it will match my other aftermarket gauges. Anyone know what the Ohms specs are for full/half full/empty, because you have to buy the gauge according to the Ohms? Or does anyone have a more detailed wiring diagram showing me what colored wires I need to tap to go into the gauge? Or should I just run a new wire from the sending unit at the tank into my cab? Any help or suggestions is appreciated!
