I wouldn't recommend either. There's a reason companies like Volvo, Toyota, etc don't use them. Mostly having to do with them causing more problems than they solve.

If you are absolutely determined to go the route of Ford and GM and install one, I'd suggest an inertia switch over an oil pressure cut off switch.

Subject: [Spits] Safety Switch?


I'm upgrading the fuel system for my Spit Six.  I see that there is a
recommendation to add a "Safety Switch" to the system to stop the fuel flow
in case of an accident.  A little research shows that I can get a switch
that shuts the fuel flow based on either a sudden stop (Inertia) or a drop
in oil pressure.  Which is preferable, and will an MGB Inertia Switch work
(there are several available on eBay).
