Default Oil Pressure

Whats normal oil pressure when under power, at idle I'm showing 40 PSI, under power it usually at the right marker for the safe range but never above it.

Default RE: Oil Pressure

Mine idles at 40 PSI according to my "guage" and is half way to the upper normal mark when cruising. From another post I read somewhere, I am above normal. most of the other guys were idling at the low end of the normal range. Then rising up when engine revs.
