Just got done installing my Autometer Electric Oil Pressure and Water Temp gauges. When Idling the oil pressure is just under or at 50psi, when I'm on the gas it goes up a little over 50psi. Is this normal?

yes, your oil pump is driven by the distributor, the faster the dist. turns at higher rpm, the faster your pump turns. you'll see the pressure drop as your engine oil heats up as well, normal
