i hate asking questions but i cant get any decent information just higher voltage then mine,
i have a current performance engine harness and a painless wiring chassis harness,
i just installed my autometer gauges now the issue is im charging at 16 volts then with the lights on its reading 14 volts
am i being overly paranoid?

I'd toss a volt meter on the output of the alternator and see what the actual voltage is. Also, you only hooked up one connection on the autometer gauge, correct? If you hook up both sides of what look like sending unit connections (on the other gauges they would be), you'll get a high reading.
