Default Oil pressure gauge high. Kilopascal

Okay so my 96 Dodge 2500 Oil pressure is read of in "kilopascal" So at 275 kilopascal it is 39psi. Iv been noticing from where my oil pressure use to read in the middle of 0 to 275 Kilo know when I start it goes above 275 and as I get to worm temp it goes back to where I thought was norm does any one have the know how on this. What should my oil pressure be at regardless of PSI and Kilopascal. I can convet the Kilo to Psi so I would just like to know the right mark so I do not hurt my truck? Hope this makes sence to someone.

I understand the kilopascal concept but not sure where pressure should be at. The gauge in my Ford just has "low" "normal" and "high" instead of numeric values.
