Default LS1 Swap Oil Pressure Low?

So I have a 2000 LS1 motor swapped into a 96 z28. The oil pressure will read at ~40psi when cold and ~20psi when hot. Under WOT the oil pressure will make its way back up to ~40psi. These are the same readings as the old LT1 motor. Is there something wrong? Do I need to adjust a senor reading similar to the way I had to change the RPM readings?

Thanks for any input
