I had a 455 that had about 6psi at hot idle and drove that car for thousands of miles and hundreds of 10 second 1/4 mile runs like that. You may not have a problem at all. 10 PSI per 1,000 RPM is good enough. No unusual noises and if the oil comes out clean I'd say drive it. Now if the oil pressure changes, drops, then I would worry
