Default 6.0 Oil Pressure question.
Just gota 03 silverado SS.

Truck runs great and is really strong, just not use to seing the oil pressure this low...warm idle it was around 30psi maybe a smidge below, 40psi crusing at 60 and went to about 60psi on wot.

I am just use to seing my trans am holding 50psi and and going 80psi on wot.

Gonna change the oil to full synthetic next weekend.

Thanks, like I said Just use to my T/A running high constantly, and my sisters escalade pretty much stays 40 no matter what, stock gauges suck!
