oil pressure guage readings in psi?

Anyone ever figure out what psi the factory guages read?
e.g. 15psi @ 1/4 sweep, 30psi @1/2 sweep
Just would like to have a rough idea and asking here is easier than hooking up a gauge .
Cheers.

Most of the oil pressure gauges are 60lbs gauges. Some are 80lbs but came in mostly larger trucks. If you take the oil pressure gauge out of the cluster it should say on the face which it is.
