You want the 4418. 16 ohms empty, 158 ohms full. The fuel level sender is nothing more than a wiper potentiometer, and the gauge is just a glorified ohm meter.

Do you know if this can work with the stock sender?

Yes. That's why they have different ohm ranges to work with all different types of senders. The 16/158 gauge is calibrated to work with the output of the stock sender.
