Is this a 'normal full' fuel gauge reading?

Just replaced the fuel sender\pickup.
Float had a hole in it.

The tank is pretty much full...a couple inches from the bottom of the filler tube. Does this reading look normal for FULL?
I know the sender works and all the wiring is good. Before I replaced it, the gauge read around 1 o'clock and stayed there no matter how much was in the tank. That sender works as well except for the bad float.
If I unplug the sender the needle pegs down around 4 o'clock.

I guess I'll run it till I run out to see where EMPTY is.

Now that I think about it, I may have moved the needle when I restored the gauges.

Thanks
