Default Brass PS401 Oil Pressure Sensor

Can anyone say if the Standard PS401 Pontiac/Buick sensor has the same output calibration as the OEM Corvette sensor?

I'm not looking for a lab comparison test of the two sensors. Just actual oil pressure readings from the same engine,before and after replacing the stock sensor,with a PS401 sensor.

Yes, if you read through the oil sender relocate sticky at the top, "426hemi" used the PS401 sender and his pressure was spot on what the stock C5 unit was.
