Lokar trans dipstick

[metalstorm]

I got the 727 version and it hit the floorboard/firewall so I got the short TH350 spare short tube to plug the main tube into so the only draw back I was told is it will spill fluid if disconnected and I am fine with that having to drain some before removal.The short plug is a 1208142.I will let you know how it works out.

I got it in and filled so wait n see if it leaks.there is an o ring in there so it should work.notice the floor seam that could be made flat but it worked as is.

I had a minute hit on the pan with the tube so I cut it at pan lip and it bolted rite on.
so now I need to cut to length the dipstick and will be done aside from the firewall mount screws at the top.

That burn is on the blanket itself and a main reason for fender exit headers.I have the headers off welding tube tabs on for the collector to bolt to but I have last months pis of it all together.

Thanks for the pics!If you ever need a replacement cable you cane use a bicycle brake cabe for under 3$ at the store or off your bike,hahaha.;)do you have the pic at the carb connection or do you just run 2 brackets there?
