Installing TES Headers...

I'm Trying to install my TES header but on the passenger side the dip stick is on the way. I'm afraid I might break it off. Is the entire dip stick replacable and how easy are they to replace?

Thanks

Pull the dipstick out, look for a tab on it's body since it is bolted to the block. After removing the bolt, wiggle the tube out. Install the tube with a whack of a rubber mallet or a piece of wood. Good Luck

I MOVED it out of the way. It 's coin toss! Do you risk breaking it by moving it out of the way or go through the trouble of taking it out? I've heard they are a pain to install. I felt mine bend a little I'll take some pictures.

Yes it is like a toss coin and I took my chances. Everything went well. I moved it to where I want it and never broke off. My TES is installed now but I could not start it yet cause I lost one of the spark plugs. Auto shop are all close now I have to wait tomorrow after work.
