Keith-

You said you just put this engine together? Normal, stock street motor
clearances (not "track" or "hot street
performance", I assume?). 

Then nothing wrong with current "running" or "idling" oil pressures,
IMHO. They won't stay there!

Will drop off "naturally" as you break it
in after a few thousand miles to 5 to 10
pounds less, more or less, respectively.

Enjoy!
