I guess the easiest thing to check is how much voltage you get coming out of this wire when you have it disconnected with the ignition on.

Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first.
Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

Generally speaking if your - gauge is good
- you have power to your gauge
- the gauge is pegged
- the gauge does not change when the wire at the sending unit is removed
It means there is a issue with the wire from the gauge to the tank, it is grounded (shorted to ground) somewhere

To me it sounds like something is shorting out on the board. I would contact this guy who restored the cluster. I'm sure if you told him what is happening he would instantly know what is wrong and where the short is. maybe there is something he forgot to install.
