 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 1=
965) with the handle bent to clear the Tiger hood.=20

The short handle (finger pull) Tiger dip stick is the same as the long hand=
le, 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)
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 availabl=
e made for early Mustangs etc.

What should the oil depth be in the stock 260 oil pan after adding 5 quarts

                It depends on the size oil filter you are using and the =
angle of your engine.

I ran through this experiment a few years ago.

=20

My 260 Tiger engine is tilted down at the front, which puts more oil to =
exactly where the dipstick is located.

=20

Your oil level will probably be above the FULL mark.

=20

My 1988 Mustang =E2=80=93 the engine tilts down at the rear about 4 =
degrees

The Tiger engine tilts down to the front at about 3 degrees

=20

Normal advise is to fill the sump =E2=80=93 run the engine =E2=80=93 =
mark your new FULL mark on the dipstick.

Your only other option is to try to make the engine tilt down to the =
rear.

What should the oil depth be in the stock 260 oil pan after adding 5 =
quarts and runup to fill the filter; in other words, the normal static =
after a run oil depth?

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

Here is some additional info

=20

Tube =96 C2OZ-6754-A is listed by Ford at 15.83=94 long, for 260 and 289 =
engines
with generator

I measured my tube at very near this length with about 14 =BE=94 above =
the
timing cover to its end.

=20

Dipstick - C30Z-6750-B=20

This is the Ford part number listed for 1964, 260 and 289 engines with
generators.

22.48" shield to FULL

23.32" shield to ADD=20

24.44" shield to end

This is extremely close to the measurements I took on my dipstick.

Additionally:     Width =3D .295=94    Thickness =3D .060=94

Darn I forgot to include

Most of the Mustang and Falcon catalogs should carry these parts.

I believe Scott Drake is making them.

 Scott Drake has them but you can't purchase them directly from him, you ha=
ve to go through one of his dealers (they are all over the US).
I find it strange that Rootes shows the Ford part number for the dip stick =
tube which has to be bent to work in a Tiger, but they don't show a Ford nu=
mber for the long finger pull dip stick which is a regular Ford stick with =
the end bent to about 85 degrees, way easier to do than the tube.

    both were missing the hood when I<br>
    got them.<br>

                        Unfortunately this will not fit correctly as you

 Now that Buck Trippel supplied the Rootes drawing for altering the dip sti=
ck, I see what the reason might be for the missing "little hood" dust cover=
. Could it be Rootes removed it to re-curve the dip stick pull? So now they=
 were loose? It is very hard to get this dust cover off, I find it hard to =
believe they just fell off.
Gary, are you dip sticks the short finger pull type?
As far as I know the dust cover isn't available.

I found an old email from David Franchi that may help.

The original dip stick & tube measurements are:
=20
 =C2=A0
=20
Stick - 24 7/16" from the tip to the inside top of the "bell" cover/dust gu=
ard. Oil "add" mark 1 1/8" from tip, oil "full" mark 2" from tip.
=20

=20
Tube - 15 15/16" overall.
=20
=20
=20
14 3/4" from the top of the "stop/seating ring" (were it goes into the timi=
ng gear cover) to the top of the tube=20
=20
 =C2=A0
=20
7 5/16" from the top of the tube to the center of the "mounting wing"
=20
 =C2=A0
=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 bot=
tom 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 19=
65) with the handle bent to clear the Tiger hood.=20
 =20
 =C2=A0

The short handle (finger pull) Tiger dip stick is the same as the long hand=

to do with a jig (I have done it without any problem)

 =C2=A0

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 availabl=
e made for early Mustangs etc.

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

nd installed in the process. Unfortunately this will not fit correctly as y=

I did not see this email come through so I=E2=80=99m resending plus =
adding some thoughts.

=20

1224808 is a Rootes part number and now Buck has provided the proof that =
Rootes modified this part, Rootes removed the Ford part number from the =
Parts list.

I do have a note in my Parts List 6601131 that 1224808 is C4JZ-6750-A

=20

6100734 indicates a Ford part number =E2=80=93 to me this indicates Ford =
made a design change to the dipstick and Rootes stopped modifying the =
part.

                I have 1 catalog that shows a C3OZ-6750-B dipstick which =
has almost exact measure as C2OZ-6750-B.

I=E2=80=99m not sure why there is a suffix letter change from =
C2OZ-6750-A =E2=80=93 the measurements look the same.

There is no illustration of these parts to indicate differences.

There are two part numbers in the Parts Manual for dipsticks.

=20

I found a drawing of the earlier version (1224808) but was unsuccessful =
on the latter (6100734).

=20

The drawing I found referenced Ford part number C20E-6750-A, but I doubt =
they differed very much.

Scott Drake has them but you can't purchase them directly from him, you =
have to go through one of his dealers (they are all over the US).

=20

I find it strange that Rootes shows the Ford part number for the dip =
stick tube which has to be bent to work in a Tiger, but they don't show =
a Ford number for the long finger pull dip stick which is a regular Ford =
stick with the end bent to about 85 degrees, way easier to do than the =
tube.

Tube =E2=80=93 C2OZ-6754-A is listed by Ford at 15.83=E2=80=9D long, for =
260 and 289 engines with generator

I measured my tube at very near this length with about 14 =

This is the Ford part number listed for 1964, 260 and 289 engines with =

happily pointed out the new chrome dipstick and dipstick tube they had =

the point of no use. I am hoping to find a =
