WTB dipstick & tube
1 Attachment(s)
Just picked up a set of cast aluminum oil pans. Has anyone seen these pans and know what the dipstick looks like? I am thinking there may be some aftermarket way of doing this... I want the dipsticks to go on the outside of the engines so they are easier to get to. So, port engine, stick on the port side... You get the idea... Engines too close together already, don't need to put more stuff in between... There is no hole in the side of the pan, it needs to use on of the drain holes...
Any ideas? Thanks! |

Any ideas? Thanks! is there a pipe thread on each side of the pan for a plug etc.? if so there are several dipstick housing around that will work. you can just use a 90 and plumb up from there. the pans i have are set up similar and worked out fine. you may have to use a universal stick and cut to length after the housing is in place. if you want i can post a pic of my set up. |
Engine builder is going to tig tubes on the side to use stock dipsticks... But thanks for the help!
