Just a general question. What is the propper reading for a LS1 Oil idjit guage to read?? Mines at 60 psi cold, jumps up to max as I give it gas. When it warms up it reads around 60ish. I seam to think it was around 40ish before?? I changed my oil and filter and it still reads high. If its the sending unit ok but Id still like to know what everyone else guage is reading. Thanks

 

I have 55+ just about all the time. Its pretty normal. Now the cars that have like 40 or lower, id be worried.

 

Mine is about 42-44 idle and 55-60 when driving.

 

About 50 going down the road all warmed up is about normal.

 

i get around 40-44 or so idle with my lt1 and 50-60 on it

 

that's what my 94 v6 USED to be at, until recently. 139xxx miles on it, just had an oil change 2 months ago, was running fine until this past week when i noticed that it now idles at 60-65 and shoots up to 75-80(max) whenever i hit the gas. Then yesterday I got it on the highway and it went back down to about 50-60, but sure enough later that night at home it was back high again. any ideas? i dont own a mechanical gauge and I havent replaced the sending unit ever. filter was replaced last year.
