Default P-pump conversion problems

hey everyone, I have a p-pumped 24v and I'm having gauge problems, my speedo and tach and fuel gauge, i'm not sure if my fuel gauge is something to do with my fass pump, or sending unit, and i've been trying to figure out if the rest of the problem is my ecm or cam, sensor.
any help or advice is appreciated. thanks

Did you replace just the front cover? The sensor on the front of the 12 valve covers is a crank position sensor. You need the cam sensor that was under the VP44 for the tach.

I swapped out the sensor for a 12v cam sensor. The local shop here (con artist i think) told me that I had to use a 12v sensor, not the 24v one...
