The winch uses 5/8" cable and 220 feet of it. A lot of people use 1/2" cable which is a little cheaper. My halftrack runs between 20 and 40 psi of oil pressure.

TM 9-710, pg.29 - "Normal readings are from 4 to 8 psi with engine idling, and a maximum of 20 to 35 psi with engine running at operating speed".
