Unhappy Oil sender locations coyote

I have 4 senders:

1) oil pressure --> FFR Gauge
2) oil pressure --> coyote computer (called oil pressure switch in ford manual)
3) oil temp --> FFR Gauge
4) oil low sensor --> coyote computer (originally in stock oil pan, approx 2" down from flange)

I have moroso 4.25" oil pan

One bung on oil pan "high" (1" down from flange, front). Two bungs "low" (2" down from flange, 1 on each side) = same as stock (as measured from flange)
I am not including drain plug at "lowest point"

I was going to place oil low sender in 1 of "low" locations, same as (similar to) stock distance from flange.
I was going to place oil temp in other "low"
I think both oil pressure senders need to go in oil filter relocation circuit, after oil pump, prior to oil filter

But now I think oil low sender needs to be in "high" (front, 1" down from flange) location. HELP!!

Thoughts? (Help!!)

Ford told me early on that the Coyote ECU does not monitor the low oil level sensor. 50-50 chance of that being accurate, I guess.

You can tee both oil pressure sensors into the factory location. Buy a tee and a short nipple from home depot.

The Coyote ECU does NOT monitor the low oil level sensor OR the oil pressure sensor. You can eliminate the low level sensor and use the bung for an oil temp gauge, and you can use the stock pressure sender location for the gauge sender. The stock Mustang ECU monitors and /or controls 600 functions, but the Coyote ECU handles just a dozen or so.
