My car until fully warmed up, shows the oil pressure around 3/4 of the dial, then when warmed up settles around midway, but when revved to higher rpms moves back up toward 3/4. Is this normal behaviour for oil pressure on 360's.

Sounds very similar to mine. The oil temp takes a long time to get up to a decent level though, at least 10 miles.

isnt this the same on all cars with pressure gauge as the pressure is higher when oil is cold then settles when warm and increases with revs after that?
