Super H Oil Pressure

While waiting for my new pressure guage to arrive, I rigged up a temporary to check the pressure in my Super H. Does anyone know the "tolerable" pressure for a SH? At low idle, it runs about 54psi and at about 1/2 throttle, it's just over 57psi. I haven't changed the oil since I brought it home so I'm not sure how old it is or when it was changed last. Looks pretty dirty and thin. The tractor most likely will never be worked again, just shown at parades and fairs after it's cleaned up some. Thanks!

Here's a YouTube link of what I did.

If you've got more than 10psi when it's hot at idle you're pretty well
good to go. By the sounds of your numbers there's lots of life left
in that old girl yet. Sam
 
They will run with 75psi in many cases. (needle pegged) They are usually good on oil pressure. I would run 15-40 diesel oil in it (were it mine) If really cold I might use 10-40 but it would need to be 20 below and needing to run. Jim
