There was a lot of ball slapping in that video. Did anyone else notice the the guy who won, what he was doing each time before a ball slap. He would grab onto the sides of his cargo shorts and pull, so there would be no lag in the crotch area.

Oil pressure is good to monitor once you build a motor as the chances of losing oil pressure increase then. Stock blocks generally will not spontaneously lose pressure and if they do, it's likely because you left bits of rod scattered on the road about 3 seconds prior.
EGTs are affected as soon as you start tuning the car and are a great way to see the effects of increasing/decreasing boost/timing as there is a direct relationship.
What if you go BT? Would oil press be beneficial by then?
I know EGT is good for tuning, but once the tune is finalized, do you still need to monitor EGT?

The thing about oil pressure and having to monitor it is that you won't see a gradual decrease in pressure to 0 over time. Its either you have pressure or you don't on a stock block. Oil pressure is maintained with proper bearing clearances, a functioning oil pump and no leaks at the oil filter and turbo. Generally, these things never change over the lifetime of a car/motor (well, you swap filters for oil changes but you get what I mean).
So, you could be driving along with a small oil leak after a new BT install and you look at your oil pressure gauge. All looks well. You keep driving up to the point where the oil pickup tube can no longer scavenge oil from the pan to pump through the motor. Its literally seconds until the motor spins a bearing. Unless you happen to look at the gauge at the exact time the pump can no longer pump oil, the oil pressure gauge is useless.
With built motors, you've disassembled the motor, played with bearing clearances and mucked around with pretty much everything at that point. This is when monitoring oil pressure becomes extremely important. Bearing clearances could be off, the motor not assembled properly etc.
EDIT: This isn't meant to discourage anybody from not running an oil pressure gauge. Its just to paint a picture of what goes on.
^ Thanks Dave!
Looks like I'll have lots more reading to do...
No worries, Anson.
If you really want to monitor something oil related, I would recommend oil temperature if you plan on tracking the car.
Blue, can you also please comment about what people will need to run the oil gauges.
Its not about discouraging people, its about people getting what they need and getting it done properly
Please comment in the GB sections (spin off conversion, adaptor plates etc.)
Keep up the good work!
^ what he said...these motors get HOT. after a session on the track, it's not uncommon for us to leave the engine running for 5 minutes or so to cool downQuote:

Also, isn't the pressure related to temperature, which means that with an oil pressure gauge you're basically monitoring both?
