Answer
Hi George, This sounds to me like it's just a bad sending unit for the oil pressure. I used to see a lot of these go bad but not to many any more. No need to worry about driving the car it won't hurt a thing. I have never seen a engine go bad in a vette, unless someone who work on one messed up.

Have a Great Day        Mark
