Ok, riddle me this:
I forgot to mention I installed a stack racing starter button. I left the wires intact so you can start the car with the key, or use the button. When you use the key, no oil pressure low light. When you use the button, the oil pressure light comes on for a second and then disappears. I think there is no oil pressure issue, just something in the button. What do you guys think?

If you start the car with the key (no light), then turn it off, then start it with the button and the light comes on it's probably a wiring issue.

Cool! Sort of I guess... glad you get a handle on it and it's probably nothing serious

Let's see...

You didn't drill into your engine block...
You didn't drill into your oil pan...
You didn't rip out your oil pump...
You didn't remove the oil cap...

You DID mess with some wiring

Relax! I'd say you're in for an electrical gremlin somewhere
