I have been told that it is impossible to fit a dipstick tube in a HEMI with TTI headers and Shumacher motor mounts.
Well it took a while, but it CAN be done!

Shoot dude, I could have given you a pattern. If you asked on the forum I missed it. Looks like our tubes follow the same route.

Looks good to me.
That first bend is awfully tight: nice work.

Mine is just a generic One , cut the mount tab off, bend it, And put the tab back On wherever it will work.
But I don’t have the Same header or mount obstacles.

Well, we finished up tonight. The dipstick that came with the assembly that I bought is too short to register the 7 quarts of oil in the Milidon Pan?

Are you asking or stating?

I had to trim the baffling in my pan, otherwise the dipstick hit it on the way down and would go horizontal, never touching the oil. Hopefully you don't have this problem too. luck

I also swapped the stick (same one as yours) for another out of a 400 because it was more limber.
