Default No Speedometer working... no milage...

I dont know if its a good thing but I recently rebuilt transmission and it seems like some wierd things happenin.

1st. Speedometer doesnt work it stays at zero while Im driving.

2nd. My milage doesnt go up....

3rd. my fuel gauge niddle has a too much movment. When the car is going uphill, it shows my tank is empty and when my car is on the flat road again, it goes back to the HALF tank.

Anybody know how I can fix it? The shop told me they tried everything and check everything but they couldn't find the problem. They believe its the gauge cluster but Im not sure if thats right because I bought that cluster gauge for almost $1000.

Default if that was unhooked, the car wouldn't start. it's related to the sender...

over the left output flange (not reconnected/dead/wiring pinched between block and bellhousing)

Fuel gauge? likely a sender(s)
