What does your pressure run when cold and when up to temp ?
11 lbs at idle with the engine not at temp ?
The 27 is at what RPM ?
Is this the kit at $16.46 ?

Installing oil pressure gauge
Mostly warmed up was 11 psi at idle and 78 psi at 3k rpm.
That is a black Guage but pretty much the same, I got a silver 37mm micro gauge of eBay for $22.
Hooked up the power on the 5 amp garage door fuse.
I had everything done under the hood and did a quick twisting the wires together sticking out of the driver's door fuse panel just to test it out and see how it was working before I crimped wires together.
Posted the pics then went to my shop to get the crimp connectors and heat shrink to permanently attatch wires together and by habit I shut the door (oops) I pinched the 3 wires together in the door jamp shorting them out together and now the gauge is not working right, looks like I will be ordering another one tomorrow.
