I use the Lokar flexible braided steel dipstick w/ a CSR shield on my 727 w/ no fitment problems.

I think a Lokar flexible braided steel or Cope will fit the shield but I would have to modify the firewall. Maybe I could mount the flexible dipstick toward the rear some how?
I was hoping they made a stubby dipstick like they do for GM trannys but they can't since there is fluid in a 904 dipstick.






Man you guys make a project out of child’s play. Bend it, cut it, modify it and the recalibrate your dipstick. Any good rebuild book shows you where the fluid level should be so you just remark your stick. (I marked mine with a magic marker and then used a hacksaw to put a groove in my dipstick) It’s not brain surgery guys.
