I just did the same thing, big block swap with hooker comps. I just put the dipstick in, put a bolt just a few threads in to keep the mounting tabs hole lined up with where it was going to be bolted down, and bent it away from the number 8 primary. I bent the mounting tab so that the dipstick spun counterclockwise away from the primary, if that makes sense.
