Oil pressure okay?

Hey everyone I just did a cam swap on my car last week and changed the oil pump to a ls6 (non-ported). When cold my pressure is at 60-65ish and when it gets up to 210(stock temp gauge) it will be at about 30psi at idle. Then while cruising it is about 40. Is this okay? This is on my stock oil psi gauge.

thats a lil below what I average but I wouldnt worry about it. If its high mileage on the engine you could run some engine restore or zpower but I dont know how much extra compression you will get.
