Put it in the pan.

Autometer sells the sender for it.

If I put in pan do I need bung welded on? And if I pulling pan is it worth having drain plug installed?

You only need to drill a hole for the drain plug/sensor. The fitting then goes through from the inside and tightens down on a gasket.

Mine needed a bung welded in. It was a Sport Comp gauge. Yes, put it in the TRANSMISSION OIL PAN.

I would weld it. Not worth the chance of a leak. Just my two cents.
