Ok, so here is my problem. After the engine build everything seemed to be going just fine and the motor runs great. But when I went to put my oil dipstick in, it goes down about 3/4 of the way and then I can feel it hits something (I assume the main girdle). It goes all the way in afterward but then when I pull it out only the tip of it has oil on it. So I assume it hits the girdle and then bends along the girdle and does not go to the bottom of the pan??? What do I do now??

Thanks

Engine Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
