****oil pressure problem****
When I first st the car up the pressure is fine. But as soon as the motor comes up to temperature it drops to 20-25psi lower than it should be. At 3000rpm and up it doesn't get any higher than 30psi. If I rev hard it'll go up but then soon drop back down.
Any suggestions?

Was the engine recently rebuilt? Because it sounds like it was and the builder used the wrong front cover o-ring stuff like in that link. I would get an aftermarket gauge just to be sure, though, since the stock one can be unreliable.
