Is that weird that mine simply stays at 60 pounds even subsequently warmed up? Is this something that I need to worry almost/ fix?
No, it is fine. Oil thins out a flake equally it warms upwardly - and then a small drop is normal. That said, if you have around 60psi consistently, it is okay too. Oil force per unit area shouldn't jump around though - if it does either the gauge is squirrelly or at that place is a trouble with the oiling system - possibly the pump or pressure regulator. My judge is oiling system is fine and you need a new gauge or sender. You tin option up an inexpensive mechanical oil pressure approximate and it will be far more accurate than the factory gauge. If pressure looks adept troubleshoot the OE judge and sender.

Muddied pump or pressure regulator? pull information technology clean it supervene upon?

...im afraid to drive it cuz driving effectually with high oil pressure might blow a head gasket right?
Define "high" oil force per unit area? Have you lot connected a mechanical gauge upwardly to verify actual pressure? If you are running 90+ psi - yes there may be a problem - if it is around 60 information technology should exist fine. Let us know what y'all detect.

Go a different cheapo mechanical gage and spiral into the engine to verify what's going on.

I did verify the oil pressure with a Sunpro dash type pressure gauge and the MAC tools pressure gauge that I borrowed from a friend.
Went to see the mechanic yesterday and he took one look at my gauge and said it was no good since the needle was al the manner to the left. I got some other gauge from him, popped it in, reassembled the motor and fired it up. The new gauge read no oil pressure! I pulled the valve embrace to verify that at that place was oil pumping upwards and in that location is.
Are these mechanical gauges?
Where, specifically, are you lot connecting the gauge on the engine?
The OEM oil sender thread size is i/8"-28 BSP (British Standard Piping)
Most aftermarket gauges are threaded with one/viii"-27 NPTF (National Pipe Thread Fuel)
Are you running an adapter with the test gauges - how are you connecting the test gauges?

Yeah, both mechanical and I pulled the manufactory sending unit of measurement to connect them into the oil cooler. The Sunpro had an adapter and the Mac gauge I borrowed form a Toyota mechanic and it was gear up up with no adapters.
From the sound of information technology, the gauges are installed correctly. What are the odds of 3 bad mechanical gauges - non very good, I would call back. That said, one thing that is odd to me is that they all didn't give consequent pressure level readings. So at this point we all the same don't really know if you truly have a true 30psi at idle - 60psi warm situation or non. We almost need a KNOWN good guess to clear this upward at this point. The skilful news is that you DO accept some oil pressure equally indicated past the valves getting oil.

the merely time that I got the thirty pounds at idle was with the Mac the first reading I did, the other two times I tried it the readings were 60 pounds at idle and revved upwardly.
That said, your oil pressure level appears to be good and should be safety to run. If at that place are no other related issues, I would drive information technology. I would also bet that the oil pressure drops a scrap once it gets hot - i.e. driven effectually for more than than 30mins - not merely idling.
