Dipstick and Headers Question
Where do I attach the dipstick tube to now that I have headers? Do I need to make another spacer like the ones that came with my 2055's? (there was only 3 of them)
Thanks

Re: Dipstick and Headers Question
I had the eddlebrock headers and they came with 2 band clamps. So I cut the mounting tab off the dip stick and put one around a header pipe and the other around the dip stick tube and bolted them together. it worked nice and heald it in place good.
