Digi Dash limitations

hi - I have a Koso Digidash which has 2 temp sensors. My plan is to use one for water which is a simple job of removing the old temp sensor in the engine and replacing.

Where I am stumped is for the oil. On the bottom of the engine there is a sender unit with a single terminal. I am lead to believe this is a low pressure switch which will illuminate a warning light if there is low pressure? Is that right?

If so, is it a good idea to be able to have a reading of oil pressure and temperature? If so, do I need speparate sensors and gauges?

What have you digi dash people done????

just add a spacer inbetween the pressure sensor and the block with a nptf thread to add your temp sensor

ok cool - is this something that you have done?

Also what gauge did you use that fits style wise with the minimal digi dash - dashboard that you have?
