Exclamation Bad oil pressure sending Unit, engine rattles?

Hey guys how's it going, I have a 88 c1500 5.0 with a bad oil pressure sending unit. Ever since the unit went bad I've been hearing a loud rattle at mid to high RPM's only while driving. My oil is full. It will not happen while I'm in nuetral (it's a 5 speed). I'm just curious if anybody has ever heard anything like that? I'm going to replace it today an we'll see if it continues. I'd appreciate the input. Thanks
