That is not 100% true. The oil pressure switch is a backup. you can remove the oil pressure switch and just use the fuel pump relay. I installed TPI into my 73 and tore apart the harness and removed the oil pressure relay and the system worked. The fuel pump relay is always energized from the computer as long as the car is running. Here are pictures of my install (I have since installed a Stealth Ram Intake)
