When I got my engine back from a high performance machine shop, they happily
pointed out the new chrome dipstick and dipstick tube they had 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...not sure if anyone has ever made a pattern of
the original tube or has any ideas. Thanks.

Rick

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.
