Hi,
I somehow managed to lose the dip stick tube for my latest engine. So, what's the consensus:
1. fabricate a tube from some aluminum2. drill / tap the block for an AN fitting and fab up a dip stick of the proper length
???
In other words, I'm looking for suggestions.
Oddly, three engine block cores and no dip stick tubes. What's up with that?

Option 2.

All you need is a plug. Best kind is one where the hex head is actually =
smaller than the plug, so you can reach it with a socket extension and =
remove it easily when the headers are still hot.

My dipstick is a toolbox item. My two race engines have the dipstick =
tubes removed ... on purpose.

I suppose "to each, his own"
But I'm with Steve.
I check my oil level, I'll bet, some times 20+ checks a weekend.
I want something that's quick, easy and doesn't require tools or cleaning.
A clean towel is all I need to grab. And done.

The 6 cylinder configuration we are talking about here has all that stuff
on the opposite side.
So, it has nothing of the sort in the way.
Anyway, Like I said "to each his own"
Both options allow for the hole to be closed and the oil to be checked.
One of my race cars is yellow and the other is green.
I love them both the same.

I'm pretty sure my dipstick tube is on the left side of the engine, =
while the headers are on the right.
Or am I missing something?
Also, a while ago a very smart tech inspector suggested installing a =
spring on the dipstick to avoid losing it, which I did install. Takes =
about 2 seconds to undo the spring, but the chance of losing the =
dipstick is nil. Also the spring holds the dipstick tightly against the =
tube, eliminating a posssible leak.
You can overheat them, over rev them, and otherwise abuse them, but =
running them out of oil.............

      Hi,

      1. fabricate a tube from some aluminum
      2. drill / tap the block for an AN fitting and fab up a dip stick =
of the proper length

I have a tube here for an engine I am building so if you want an idea of =
the original you can make one:

=20

Take a piece of 3/8=E2=80=9D steel tubing and put a flare on one end.  =
Then cut the tube to a total length of 5 inches.  You will need to crimp =
the last 1 inch of tube to fit into the block or ream out the hole in =
the block a bit.  Epoxy the new tube into the block!  The tube sticks =
out of the block 4 inches and you could also put a little bend in it to =
mimic the original. =20

Yep, my Spit engines did the same to me (sans flames, in my case, so far =

My Spit did it too. I got the meatball flag so many times from oil on the he=
aders that it was ridiculous. Got so I'd look for it every lap.=20

At first I tried a spring to hold the dipstick down tight in the tube but it=
 still leaked. Then I tried to cap the dipstick tube with a silicon plug and=
 a silicon cap and held with a clamp but that leaked too.=20

The solution on my engine was not with the just the tube or dipstick it was i=
n venting the engine better on both the top and bottom end and adjusting the=
 spring load of the split on the dipstick.

I added a 1 inch ID hose venting the oil pan at the old mechanical fuel pump=
 opening and added a 1/2 inch ID hose to the valve cover so along with the s=
tock existing 3/8 inch hose on the valve cover I ended up with 1 7/8 inches o=
f hose vented to the required catch tank.

I also bent the split on the dipstick so that it was harder to pull out of t=
he tube and I replaced the felt gasket.

Extreme venting and spreading the dipstick cured the oil out the dipstick pr=
oblem on my engine and probably has helped avoid pushing oil out other place=
s. Plus the engine isn't having to overcome any buildup of bypass gas pressu=
res on the bottom. I hope.=20

Nice that the dipstick is still there for checking the oil and I don't have t=
o go look for it.

Plus I haven't seen the meatball flag in awhile.

Hi,
I never did find the missing dip stick tube, but I played around a bit with=
 random bits in the shop and was able to take a 5 in length of 3/8" bundy t=
ube and=C2=A0 make it fit. I had to turn the section that fits into the blo=
ck down to .350 or so for a sloppy fit and then JB welded the tube to the p=
roper height. I finished it off with a 37 degree flare at the open end for =
a good seal with the dip stick.
No more excuses now. The engine is less than an hour of futzing 'till I dro=
p into the car.
C ya,Bob Lang

 My Spit did it too. I got the meatball flag so many times from oil on the =

At first I tried a spring to hold the dipstick down tight in the tube but i=

nd a silicon cap and held with a clamp but that leaked too.=C2=A0
The solution on my engine was not with the just the tube or dipstick it was=
 in venting the engine better on both the top and bottom end and adjusting =
the spring load of the split on the dipstick.
I added a 1 inch ID hose venting the oil pan at the old mechanical fuel pum=
p opening and added a 1/2 inch ID hose to the valve cover so along with the=
 stock existing 3/8 inch hose on the valve cover I ended up with 1 7/8 inch=
es of hose vented to the required catch tank.
I also bent the split on the dipstick so that it was harder to pull out of =
the tube and I replaced the felt gasket.
Extreme venting and spreading the dipstick cured the oil out the dipstick p=
roblem on my engine and probably has helped avoid pushing oil out other pla=
ces. Plus the engine isn't having to overcome any buildup of bypass gas pre=
ssures on the bottom. I hope.=C2=A0
Nice that the dipstick is still there for checking the oil and I don't have=
 to go look for it.
Plus I haven't seen the meatball flag in awhile.
