If the engine is cold, then the needle on your M should get very close to pegging the gauge. It is supposed to have a maximum of about 75 psi of oil pressure, so that sounds about right for an engine in good condition. Like El Toro said, let it run a while and I am almost positive it will fall a little. Now if you were to put on a gauge that goes to 100 and find numbers above the maximum, there is something wrong, as the relief valve should be keeping your oil pressure at or below about 75 psi. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
