Default 5.0 oil pressure

Hi, i just put a 5.0 into my older ford, the engine had roughly 100000 miles on it, i was just wondering what the oil pressure should be.
Thank You

once the engine is warm the pressure at idle in gear should be 35-45psi unless it has a high volume pump. It should not drop much be low 20-25 at the least.
