Default What should gauges read?

In the corvette - 2000 c5 6spd with corsa exhaust xpipe and blackwing.. what should all the gauges read? should they all be half way or? The car I am buying from someone with 33k miles.. What should the guages read? I know the bottom right is fuel gauge and obviously that read ur gas .. thanks

But top left is something that says psi?

Bottom left is temperature

Top right is battery volts?
