I'm just about finished assembling my tri-power 427 side-oiler to put in my '67 fastback. I'm not sure which position the FE Mustangs had the dipstick in. There is a place in the block and one in the canton oil pan. Can anyone with a factory 390 or 428 help me out?

FE's always had the stick in the block, just behind the oil filter adapter. But if you don't have the factory dipstick tube, you'll have to make one or use the one with the pan.
