When I got my engine back from a high performance machine shop, they happil=
y pointed out the new chrome dipstick and dipstick tube they had obtained a=
nd installed in the process. Unfortunately this will not fit correctly as y=

he dipstick was missing and the old tube battered to the point of no use. I=
 am hoping to find a solution??.not sure if anyone has ever made a pattern =
of the original tube or has any ideas. Thanks.<br></div><div dir=3D"ltr"><b=
