Hey there. There is a guy in Florence with an SVO. Over on SVOCA forums he goes by AlexL.
What do you mean low? Where is it sitting at as far as pressure? Are you running a mechanical gage or a sending unit? If it is a sending unit, they are known to be faulty.

Really is it Florence Ky lol thats where i am located. But it is a Phantom Oil Pressure gage have it up on the piller. When stoped at a stop light it reads 20 psi. That just seams low to me. If i get on it it builds oil pressure fast.

i dont thinks that too low. when my 6 is warm its around 30-40 at idle so i think you should be fine. Just make sure there are no kinks in your line to the gauge and no leaks.
