How come soo much for the dipstick? I wouldn't have thought that would have been anymore than $15-$20.

Which one did you get?

i got the 44 inch long, not sure exactly how long but i was told to get the longest possible. it was the lokar dipstick off jegs. i did the swap 7 months ago and could have the price wrong.
EDIT: just checked jegs and they have one for 62.00 and one for 59.00

not that many people want the entire kit. sponsers sell the parts, just not a kit. most stick with OEM stuff
