The previous owner installed a set of headers and mickey moused a dipstick into the side of the oil pan! Can anyone tell me were the original location is? thanks Ian '78 Dodge D100 Step Side '92 Chrysler Daytona '00 Jeep Cherokee '12 Ram 1500 Quad Cab

Doesn't matter , trucks used a different pan than a car , the block location is for a car pan which is center sump , the trucks have a rear sump pan so the dipstick has to be back there , in the side of the pan . There was not a seperate truck block ...
