oil pressure cutoff switch

  I've been wanting to get a switch that'll shut off the engine
if the oil pressure drops too low, and I was surprised to
see one in my new 1999 Mopar Performance catalog (15psi). I was
even more suprised at the price; really cheap! I don't remember
the exact price now, but I think it was about $15. Unfortunately,
they didn't list any applications; do you think it would work on
my Dak? Is 15psi a good place to shut off the engine, or could the
pressure drop below that during normal operation?

 (Yeah yeah, I know, just call the hotline...) ;-) I thought
someone here might have some additional info or insights though.

  Thanks!
