dipstick for s54 swap.

BeirBrennerE30 · 10-27-2010, 03:37 PM

tryin to clean up this swap. What dipstick do people use for the s54 swap. I have an s54 one in there and it fits like shit. the e34 one hits the intake manifold. Do I have to cut and weld to make a mix of both that will fit of is there something off the shelf?

Input would be great. thanks.

I bent the E34 one like an "S" and cut off the plastic wings from the stick itself so it could negotiate the new bends.
