Which way would be preferential? I’d think using the oil-cooler sensor adapter, so you’re getting your pressure and temperature information on the same side, post-cooler core, rather than getting one reading pre-core and one post-core. However I’ll defer to those more knowledgeable than me to confirm, as I only use the built in oil temp gauge and OEM sensor on my 17, and don’t have any external pressure sensor at the moment.

Thinking out loud, but maybe using one in the adapter, and one below the AN fitting in an effort to maintain as much consistency as possible.

Though I have also heard of (and admittedly need to do more research into) putting the oil pressure sensor into the top of the block.
