88 4.9 gauges and charging issues

Got some amazing help fixing my wiring issues...got the truck running. Nowwhile its running i get good voltage on gauge. Turn on blower it drops a decent amount on the gauge. Shows 14+ on battery terminal. Only about1 amp draw on blower while on high. At idle im showing 26 amps coming from alternator. Battery + is showing 2.0 amps andthe wiring on the +side of relay beside battery cable is showing 8-10 amp draw. If i turn headlights and blower on the gauge drops to maybe 9 or so. My only concern is my oil psi gauge goes up when this happens...what would cause this...is it possible i have wrong wire on oil psi sensor it acts normal otherwise....thanks in advance
