There is an optional mount for that. It's designed for water temp and go in the block. Adapting it for a trans you may need to weld it to the pan.

can’t I just put a drain plug kit on the pan because I’m changing selonoids this weekend and I can screw this into the drain plug?

If it has clearance above it, and the threads match up, that would probably work.
