Default Oil Pressure Question

What kind of oil pressure do you guys get with 6 quarts of oil? My neddle is all screwed up and I need to get it back to normal. Thanks.

Well, if my gauge is correct mine never dips below 40 and at higher rpms goes up to 70-75 psi. I don't know how hard you have been on it or how many miles it has but mine has 29,000 now.
