This is creating a voltage divider, allowing the ECU to read the varying voltage at the analog input. The sensor itself is a variable resistor I believe.

Also check out the first post in this thread, which says the 98 LS1 had a 3-pin CTS sensor. Not sure if you could use that?

Maybe some of this will help...
Bryan,
You are spot on with both options. I was told by an EFI tuning expert about the resistor work around. Also found the 90-96 Corvette uses the 3 wire sender. I have ordered one of those.

You are WAY better at 'net searches than I am. I had looked for hours, and didn't come up with the info you did.

Thanks for your help! I appreciate it.

Bill
