Trying to confirm which dip stick I have for my 727. Does anyone know the correct length (overall and from tip to full line) for a stock '71 Hemi?

Mine is a 4202951 but when I search the part number, it comes up as a dip stick for a 383 - 440.

RSI700, I know someone who can make you a new tube & dipstick assy - locking one too. This is all he does. Masta Performance - Dan Masta. He's a total Mopar guy too.

Sunroof - Tube is installed and I'd rather not touch it. Just want to make sure I have the correct amount of trans oil in there. You can get pretty close with an engine oil change (drain pan and put 7 quarts in) but an auto has a converter and 2 coolers, etc. so draining the pan doesn't help with how much more to put in.

Not sure of of yours but the 68-69 deep pan 6 qts is listed in this bulletin. 70 and 71 use a shallow pan but still 6 qts, so the stick may be different. 66-67 only had 5 quarts. That's a great image DS. Wish I could find something like that for a '71.

For comparison purposes I checked the dipstick from my 68 RR. I know the dipstick is not a repro. Not sure if this info applies for 71...
I measured from the cap to the end and got 16 3/4" Cap to F mark is 14 3/4" Cap to A mark is 15 3/8"
Overall from end to top of the curved handle is 18 1/2" The dipstick was cut and has two rivets, this is approximately 4"-4.5" measured from the cap. The overlap is 3/4"
I do not see a part number on this dip stick.
Hope this helps.
Jim Excellent information Jim. I will check mine against yours. Mine definately has a part number as previously mentioned.
