how to install the oil pressure gauge on a Chevy 350 small block
I have a 1974 Chevy truck with the 350 V8 and the engine is in good shape. At idle the oil pressure is 35-40 PSI, at driving speed it goes up to about 50 PSI. Hope this helps.

Engine noise.
Not sure, i would say oil pump or cam bearings
It is normal for the oil pressure to drop when the engine is warmed up and at an idle.
At the back of the block, near the distributor.
The normal oil pressure on a 2002 Chevy S10 V6 is around 40 PSI. This will vary slightly depending on the temperature of the engine. Hot at idle in drive, 20 psi is also normal.
a Chevy 350 engine at idle at operating temp will need at least 6 psi of constant oil pressure to maintain normal engine operation without doing damage to the motor, regardless of the type and weight of oil being used. when the motor is being run above idol, depending on the age and application of the motor, a 350 needs 12-15 lbs of constant oil pressure to keep the motor free of premature damage. tipically speaking if you have 6 psi of oil pressure on a cold motor and good oil, something is worn, damaged, or broken.
By the way yes it dose have a 350 it and it just had a new oil pump pick up screen installed along with a new sender
