typical MP readings for O-320 FP

What would the range of typical expected manifold pressure readings be for an O-320 (Fixed-pitch, carb)? I just want to be sure my MP plumbing is good, so I want to do a sanity check on my readings.

Close to 29" WOT at sea level to 10" or so at idle in flight with the prop turning the engine. Your results may vary....but not by much.
