My '52 GMC Maintenance Manual calls for a hot minimum oil pressure of 40 psi at 2750 rpm on a new or rebuilt engine while a "used" engine should have at least 25 psi. At idle (425 rpm) the pressures should be a minimum of 5 psi new/rebuilt and 2 psi used. Are there any such specs in a Chevy manual?
