Oil Pressure Gauge Equivalent to pressure… - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone know what actual oil pressure equates to the different spots of the stock oil pressure gauge in our trucks? I have a 68 and just swapped in a new to truck, but older rebuilt SBC that I put a new HV/HP oil pump in while “freshening it up” and the gauge was pegged past the markings on start-up. Just trying to figure out what oil pressure that equates to.

Also noticed my rear mail seal is still leaking (I took a lot of care in replacing it with a fel-pro) and curious if the high pressure can maybe cause that.
