      SBC Dipstick Question...

      Has anyone found one that will fit around headers? The motor in question is a right-hand dipstick late-model ('87-up) roller block.

      Thanks in advance.

      Lokar

      I've made the stock one fit, but the Lokar works great.

      Ah, looks good. The only problem is that my headers have AIR tubes on them for emissions; I think they'll interfere with the stick. I was looking for one that goes around the outside of the header.

      I think the Lokar one is flexible so you can bend it to where you want it.

      I just got the Lokar stick and needed to grind away from the base to squeeze by the heads. But it looks great once installed.
