Default Oil dipstick

388 stroker 4 bolt splayed lt1

The plastic part broke where you pull on it to take it out and I want to replace with something that looks better. Is there anywheres that sells just the aftermarket dipstick without the tube? Or am i stuck with factory stick?
Also I read that the lokar setup probably won't be a good idea with the 4 bolt splayed?

Thanks guys

Madman makes a killer set up for Th350/400s that comes with a locking dip stick. Not sure if he has one for a 60e

Sounds like he's looking for an oil dipstick, not a trans dipstick.

OP - just about any SBC dipstick should work, but the stock one works just fine as well.
