I'm thinking one could put a tee fitting in place of the idiot light oil pressure sensor, and run a actual oil pressure gauge at the same time.  I've seen a few pix of people who put the gauge down where the engine is, but maybe an electric gauge near the cluster would be more useful. The rationale is, maybe you can see a drop in oil pressure on the gauge before the idiot light signals there's a problem.  Might save all kinds of pricey engine bits in the long run.

What is the consensus on the sound an engine makes when the oil pressure is low?
