There are several power and ground wires in the cluster plug. X2 on checking those splices.

Powers are Pink with a stripe and the grounds are black.

Ground the green temp sender wire and it should nail the gauge at the hot end.
Ground the oil pressure sender wire and it should drop the needle to 0.
Fuel should drop to E with the sender wire shorted to ground.

Cluster plug pin-outs in the FAQ http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=456877
