Question temp guage pegged out

Hi all, I recently purchased a 83 silverado. The temp guage didn't work, so I called LMC and got the right sending unit for my truck. When I pulled the old one out, it looks like a sending unit for non-guages truck. The new correct one is different looking. I put the new one in , cranked the truck up, the guage went to full hot and has stayed there, even when cold. I will be putting in a seperate aftermarket guage so I can see what temp I have, but want to get the factory guage working. Has anyone had this happen to them????. David
