Default gauge problems please help

I just did a head job on my 95 3.8 mustang.....And i noticed that when my car gets warmed up and im driving it for a bit the temp gauges will go like way up when i push on the brakes but if i step on it the temp gauge will go right back to middle(normal)... Also when i push on the brakes my oil pressure gauge starts twitching and goes down to 0.. Sometimes it even stalls at stop signs.Also when i step on it it that goes back to normal as well.... BUT i noticed that my check engine light was on so i took it down to the autozone and had them check it for me and it says that my cam sensor is bad or the timing is off a bit.... WOULD THAT FIX MY PROBLEMS AND IDEAS ABOUT ANYTHING LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK

THANKS ALOT, JOSH!

You probably messed up a wire in the harness.

1) check to see if you've reconnected your fan switch

2) check to see if the fan is working.

3) check your fuses

4) check for air pockets

5) check your thermostat.

6) if your head cracked there may be some oiling issues-or water may have gotten into your oil and caused an oil pump failure
