Default RE: the normal

the norm for my gauges seem to be : battery gauge is usually about half way 14vols i beleive the oil pressure is about half way when driving the drops a lil when im stopped at a red light or something then it will go to about 3/4 of the way up if i punch it, the temp gauge is usually a lil below 210 degrees and i usually idle around 500-600rpm city driving (25-35mph) about 1500-1800rpm and highway driving (70-75mph) is right around 2000-2100rpm

Hah my battery gauge is about 13volts, my temp is always moving, my oil pressure i think something is wrong because its about 20psi at idle and hardly moves when I'm driving which scares me but it does go 10psi per 1k rpm so I guess its ok. My fuel gauge we all wont go there. Normal idle = 600rpm (aftermarket tach hooked up) 3.73 gears = ~2100 rpm @ 70mph
