Default Rallye Cluster Oil Press Gauge

Does anyone have an oil pressure reference comparing the non-descriptive "tick" marks on the oil pressure gauge in an E-body rallye gauge setup to actual oil pressure numbers? The gauge has high and low marks along with a middle range.

The gage in my brothers R/T Challenger reads from 0-100 psi. (we hooked up a extra oil Pressure gage at on time)Then of coarse straight up would be 50 lbs the 25 on the first mark and 75 on the 3. The car should start cold and run near the middle, then when it warms a little drop of a little to maybe 1/3 of gage. I wouldnt worry to much unless it drops below the first mark. His factory 440 holds around 55-60 psi when hot and around 40-45 warm operating temp.
