Every major FE builder is on record essentially saying FE oil pressure at idle is {almost} meaningless. I've posted several quotes before from builders, old FE mechanics, Ford shop manuals, etc. that anything over about 6 to 8 lbs. was fine back "in the day." So long as it comes right up with the throttle, your pressure at idle doesn't really mean much with an FE.
