Anyone got a tip to share putting a dipstick tube bk in after fitting long 4 into 1 headers? The seemingly simple things can do your head in. Maybe it had to be installed before bolting the header up or something. Iv mucked about levering it away from the header tube with a pry bar and shaping it to fit the engine cover. What a time wasting f#%k on

What brand 4-1's? I fit Hurricane and have done Pacemakers and the dipstick goes back in easily. Although, I have removed a set of X Force 4-1's and had to rebend the dipstick after fitting Hurricanes.

Di Filippo. Bit of a stuff around bending it to align properly on jack stands but got there in the end. Thanks mate appreciate the reply. I'd have to agree it's an expensive system, cats sit too low
