Oil pressure is a funny thing isnt it?

The night that my oil pump decided to kill itself, I did a lot of reading on oil pressure. On 1g's anyway if I remember right, you are supposed to have atleast 11psi at idle but I dont remember what its supposed to be running. I do remember reading that it is ok for it to peg the 0-100PSI guage at WOT though. Your numbers do seem a tad low, but I dont think you are too low yet.
