[Fot] Oil Pressure warning lights?

[MadMarx]

I have a 22 psi sensor attached to the main oil gallery.
I put a bright 12V LED light into the ignition light on the dash and
attached it to the sensor.
So if the pressure drops below 22 psi the ignition light cheers up.
The reason for the ignition light version is that it doesn't disturb the
dash design.
After a race when the engine is quite hot the red light is flashing a little
at idle speed.

Cheers
Chris

Betreff: [Fot] Oil Pressure warning lights?

I've been thinking about putting a low oil pressure warning light on the
dash of my Spitfire race car. I have full mechanical gauges but I'd like
something to bitch slap me if I miss a pressure drop.
Does anyone have any specific recommendations for sensors, lights and what
PSI the system should be set at? How about water temp, anyone running a
warning light for that too?

thanks
