I meant oil level :D when in the throttle will the oil psi needle on the gauge move around or fluctuate when hold the same speed/rpm?

I just went out and cranked it and I was gonna video how it was doing I started it up the gauge went to about 65 stayed there for about 12 seconds and then went to 40 and held at 40 for about 2 min I gave it some throttle it started climbing back up to 60 real steady, then I shut it off I dont know what the hell is wrong with this thing and it dont sound right at idle to me either
