Smokey Yunick's rule of thumb was 10psi of oil pressure for every 1000rpm.

Hello,
Thats a good question. Well, I know I had 7qts of fresh stuff in there and
it was full when I came home. Is the gauge suppose to read much higher than
that? As for the temperature gauge, my car tends to run very cool. I have a
two core radiator installed. It wasnt that hot outside either. In the low
70's.
