I had the same problem with my dipstick. I used a flexible one from eBay with braided stainless steel and works great

Good to know! I got a flexible Lokar one that I need to install.

I usually put marking paint or white out on the torque converter pads. With spacer installed. Offset it from the original bolts, set it on flexplate. Now I know where to drill

love the build!! glad to see progress. Few things love the sketchy way of putting the transmission in lol. you need to scratch a W next to the K on the fire wall. Then you can definitely install a lokar dipstick tube in the transmission while it is in.

Thanks Wilson Garage! Appreciate you showing my your lokar flex on the 2v, it's a nice unit! I've always wondered about the k on the firewall. Decided not to paint the engine bay just because of that lol.

Get rid of all those chain links on your cherry picker. All you really need is the hook, that will get you at least 6 inches more of clearance.

just the hook would not clear the intake

that is a good option for sure but being solo this time and the car being on cribs I thought it was easier to do it this way! Thank you for watching!

I wonder how true the flexplate is now ive tried doing something similar to this it did not work killed the tranny pump an cracked the flexplate
@diduck6878 3 жыл бұрын
Did you install the spacer? Also if you used a larger boost valve in transmission (shift kit), you should always switch to hardened steel or stainless pump rings. Because of the added line pressure.

Are you talking about the wheel cribs? I think I put a piece of 2x4, if I remember right under the trans.
