In newly rebuilt C, the oil pressure is right in the middle of the gauge.
I would guess it is around 50 lbs. It is not as high as my B when running,
but it does not fall as much when at idle. I just ran it 1700 miles to the
Twist Summer party and everything appeared to be all right. I would
imagine that 45 when running was acceptable for an older engine.
