Gauges

[Lucky]

What should the 4 gauges ideally read on my 1997 CE LT1.
(oil pressure, voltage, etc) This might sound stupid but I'm really green when it comes to cars..........Thanks

Sorry...I can't even type It's a 1996

if you run through the gauges on the digital part, (by hitting the gauges button) you should see voltage between 13.8 and 14.2, oil temp a bit higher than coolant, and coolant ranging between 175-230 for normal driving in town (and if in stop and go, the oil may just stay hot)

for the oil pressure, to make it simple, on the analog gauge: from a bit over 1/4 at idle, to almost max at full throttle is normal.
