Low oil pressure at idle, once hot.

Just threw in a new/used shortblock into my car and once the coolant temps are up to normal, it seems that my oil psi at idle is 0.
This is with idle about 850rpms in drive.

As soon as i hit the gas pedal it goes up to 10-15+ and goes up from there. I'm running 15w-40 rotella for now, but I might change to something better and thinner after reading the oil temp/oil pressure thread made by Jeffgst.

Thanks
Aaron
