From my 1972 Factory service manual... 100 psi MINIMUM - engine warm with all plugs removed and carb WOT... Sounds like you have a healthy motor, but with that mileage I'd be thinking about dropping the oil pan, replacing bearings and the timing chain.
Do yourself a big favor and buy a FACTORY service manual, the info in there is more than worth the few bucks.
