Tom those figures are for a std pump mate BUT as alvyn said oil grade makes a difference

an uprated pump should be around 80 psi cold

But it is not such a good idea to have too much pressure,because all the oil gose to the top quickly and only has a hole the size of 22 mm approx to return to the sump= bottom end failure if low on oil

These are mine 60 psi cold
32 psi hot at idle
this is on mobil 1 motorsport 15/50

I personally think your oil is too thin
BUT your figures are in spec
