It always pissed me off that Chevy didn't put an oil pressure gauge in my SS/SC. I'd rather have that on the post than a boost gauge. The op gauge won't help unless you are staring at it when something goes wrong, but for me it's just a comfort thing.

my oil pressure when fully warmed up with synthetic oil is around 5 psi at idle, when car is not warmed up its around 80 psi and under normal driving conditions warmed up its around 30 psi
