What are you using? I'm looking for a flexible engine oil dipstick.. Further more , I'm curious if there is one that can be adjusted for a lower windage tray since mine had to be moved down slightly from stock because of the increased stroke.. I guess any ol' sbc will do like this lokar?

Reuse the stock one. You can tweak the end so it doesn't hit the windage tray/caps. In all the LT1 buildups I have done I have never had to replace it with anything else. Yes it can be a PITA with certain headers, but after a few you get pretty good at tweaking the stocker to fit and clear just fine.

Yes but yes but, my stock one is nearly broke in half from trying to remove it because it's stuck in the block.. So I won't be reusing it so I figured I would find a braided flexible one that looks good too...
