Message:
Whats everyones oil pressure reading at idle after warmup, and pressure at cruising speed?
Kinda curious cause mine reads about 35 at idle and maybe 55 at 60mph.
I think my pressure may have dropped off a little since the truck was new, (99 C/C, 5.2 W/Auto Tranny)

That's after it's dropped off??? Sheeeesh! Rule of thumb is 10psi per thousand rpm. The old 318's would just hit around 35psi and just sit there. Looks like you're doin' okay.
