Here is a older email from David
Note:
I found an old email from David Franchi that may help.
=20
The original dip stick & tube measurements are:
=20
Stick - 24 7/16" from the tip to the inside top of the "bell" cover/dust =
guard. Oil "add" mark 1 1/8" from tip, oil "full" mark 2" from tip.
--
Tube - 15 15/16" overall.
14 3/4" from the top of the "stop/seating ring" (were it goes into the =
timing gear cover) to the top of the tube=20
=20
7 5/16" from the top of the tube to the center of the "mounting wing"
=20
With the stick installed in the tube, the tip of the stick protrudes 9 =
1/2" out of the end of the tube. (measured from the tip of the stick to =
the bottom of the tube "stop/seating ring") David Franchi

The long handle Tiger dip stick is a standard Ford part (originally from =
a 1962 Fairlane, it was used on early small block Fords until around =
early 1965) with the handle bent to clear the Tiger hood.=20
=20
The short handle (finger pull) Tiger dip stick is the same as the long =
handle, except Rootes cut off the handle and had it made shorter, this =
is easy to do with a jig (I have done it without any problem)
=20
The tube is a Ford part C2OZ-6754-A, it has to be bent slightly to fit =
the Tiger. Neither are available from Ford, but they are reproductions =
available made for early Mustangs etc.

When I got my engine back from a high performance machine shop, they =

obtained and installed in the process. Unfortunately this will not fit =
correctly as you can imagine. Mysteriously although they had returned =
some other parts, the dipstick was missing and the old tube battered to =
the point of no use. I am hoping to find a =
solution=E2=80=A6=E2=80=A6.not sure if anyone has ever made a pattern of =
the original tube or has any ideas. Thanks.
