Are these Oil Pressure Values Normal?

[TSIkw]

Is it normal to be at 75 mph (3500 rpm) and have vac-boost @ 0 and Oil Pressure @ 50.

Also, at Idle (1000 rpm) to have oil pressure of 15.

Thanks for any input guys.

yea, that sounds about right.

 

[TSIkw]

ok good...thanks man

Ok so after driving home yesterday this is what I have, give or take a little.

I am using 10/40 dino-juice. with an auto tranny so 4th gear is my top, the rear end gears are different as well. Oil filter had been relocated using Perma-cool kit. So with that taken into consiberation my numbers look like;

approx 15 oil psi at idle (750-780rpm)
75-80 mph at around 0 boost I see 85-90 oil psi

Any one else?

Are the engine BS removed ?

 

[1GawdJunkie]

Sorry, yes it is. The bs are out.

I have the same pressure value ... around 6.3 bars.

Where is the stock oil pressure in the dash indicating? .. I lost the stock pressure sensor while I'm doing the first engine overhauling ... but a new one on the way.

Then is the 50 oil psi my friend is seeing to low. (BS eliminated, and the engine is a rebuild at roughly 8:7 compression.

My gauge is in bar, but I see about 12 psi at idle (750rpm) & around 65 or so at highway cruise (can't remember exactly if Im 4 or 5 bar on the highway, so 60-75 psi). BS still installed, using Moble1 5W-30.

Boost won't affect your oil pressure.

I have my BS out and I see 12 psi at idle and a minimum of 75-80psi on the hwy. I run Mobil 1 15-50 though. Of course, oil temperature makes a big diff. On a cold engine at hwy speeds, I'm off the guage. On the other extreme, crusing on hwy for a long time the oil gets up to about 240F, that's when I see about 75psi on the hwy.
