Default recommended oil

hello chaps

I've just had the engine rebuilt, and was using shite running in oil and it was smoking its tits off, so put the good stuff in Fuchs titan race 10w-50.

I'm still not happy with the oil pressure when hot so would fuchs titan race 10w-60 suffice? also should i drop the 10w-50 or can i just top it up with 10w-60??

pressures when cold are 5 bar on the banana pod guage as its a high pressure oil pump, when hot needles sits between the red and 1 bar when idle,
