This sounds like more of a tell tale sign of impending failure than a chip detector...even have a safety net and if those values are exceeded, shut the engine down to prevent catastrophic failure.

Sound like a wiener?

P.S. If shutting down the engine sounds dangerous just think if it hand grenades in traffic.

Brilliant idea.
