Dip stick and tube question?

[SMOKEDYA]

Sup guy's on our 95's with headers how do you get the dip stick and tube to go back into the original location? If anyone has any pics they can put on here of there's it would be great. I have bassani equal lenth's and cant get the dip stick tube to route the stock way again, plus before when i had the flow tech's unequal lenth's it was the same way? peace

I was trying to put the stock dipstick back in after the swap of my longtubes a few summers ago. Unfortunately it broke trying to rebend it the right way to fit the new stuff. Some people can get it back in but a lot of us break it. I then bought a Lokar flexible one and it was a major piece of crap IMO. It didnt even wanna go in the block. So trying to put it in, it broke also. Then I decided to buy a shorty Ford Motorsport one. Absolute perfect bend to get between the headers. They say it fit fox body only but obviously it fit us also. I'm telling you, you dont even have to bend it at all. It goes right in and it's also chrome so it looks good. Here's the link for it:

I have longtubes and had to install the tube and the headers kinda at the same time, was a pain in the a$$ but it worked, helps if you have someone under the car to guide the dipstick.

Thats the same one I used on my LTs...stocker had to be positioned/zip-tied to the AC line on the fender to work..That FRPP one snaked right in and bolted right back to the stock header location...

Think that thing'll work on BBK shorty equal lengths?
