Sam:

My 1966 Austin A60 Cambridge uses the same engine as the MGA - the 1622cc 3
main engine.  I have a working oil pressure of 50 lbs.  My engine is
completely original but low mileage (35,000 miles).  I suggest that any
pressure much below 40 should be looked at with some scepticism and a view
to correction.
