If I had one I'd send the measurements - bit I don't. I just did this about 2 weeks ago with a dipstick I picked up at a swap meet, but was too long. Since then, picked up a correct stick, compared to another I had which was correct, measured, cut with a dremel, made the hash marks for low and full with the cutting wheel, it was simple - and it already had the correct handle -hope someone with a 225 stick will give the measurements - Joe

You can buy a mopar performance dipstick at you local dealership. Change you oil. Fill to correct level put new dipstick in and mark at top of fresh oil on stick with moto tool. Now you know thats the level to keep it at. And you have a new dip stick. Nice car
Thats what I did--its really the only way to ensure that how much the stick says is in the pan really IS in the pan.

There are Mopars vendors who will ship USPS international to Belgium, that is usually surprisingly cheap. Look on ebay, for example . Biggest issue may be the slant 6. If you can modify a SB or BB you'll be OK, if not I don't know where you'd get a /6
