I have a 2002 Avalanche 1500 with a 5.3 Liter Vortec Engine.  The oil
pressure gage reads 60 - 70 durring normal driving conditions.  Is
this normal?  If not what is the pronlem?  Any ideas?

Thanks!

For what it's worth my 89 454 reads about the same, if you want to
know what it's reallly at hook up a mechanical gauge.  Has the
pressure always been like this?  I personally would be more concerned
with low pressure than high. Hope this helps.....Ed

I've got a conversion van 1500 and a motorhome 3500: both always read high.
