Oil presure '94 Z28?

What should my gauge on the dash be reading for a 1994 Z28 when operating under normal circumstances?

Thanks

Warmed up and idling at a stop about 20 psig. Cruising on the road at 60mph about 40 psig.

Mine seems to around 30 to 35 psig cruising, should I be concerned?

You also have to remember that the guage in the dash isnt exactly built to give out precise 100% acurate readings. Its there for the most part for a novelty. Now i'm not saying it cant help indicate a problem, i'm just saying that its not like it reading a few psi lower than the usual is a big problem.

Don't sweat that a bit. Like fbird95 said thay read poorly, but keep an eye on them anyway.
