Default Oil Dipstick

I took it out when installing my new heads and cant seem to find how it goes into the engine and the where the bolt attaches itself. Does anyone have a pic were it shows the location of the dipstick and that stuff. I really cant find it duh..

yea just stick it in the hole... you'll get it. no that wasn't meant to have two meanings. if you have someone help you out you can have them hold it and just slide under the car and guide it in.

Yeah, its a pain in the a$$. You have to make sure you seat it in correctly or else you will have some oil leakage, not much, but it will leak. The bolt to thread it in to is somewhere above the two spark plugs in the middle I beleive. Some one correct me if im wrong.

yeah its between the 2nd and 3rd header, and once you get the tube in just push the bracket against the engine and you should find the hole easily.
