Cold engine 70 lbs of oil pressure with synthetic.  Hot
(worn) engine 35 to 40 pounds with synthetic.

Okay, my turn to bid and up the ante.

Cold in summer:  70 lbs.
Cold in winter:  Don't rev the engine over 3000!
Hot, 100+ air temp and the engine has been running 5 hours: 55
lbs.
Oil:  Valvoline 10W-40.

20W-50 will give the same pressure hot, but the cold pressure is
higher.
Engine Mileage: 30,000
