Oil Dipstick Replacement

[LannyL81]

I managed to break off the spot weld on the mounting tab which tore-out the tube...so no chance of fixing it.

So have others had success with one of the flexible dipsticks or another? Is there anything special about the '81 Corvette engine oil dipstick that requires a "special" dipstick or something??????

Thanks

AS long as the total length of the tube is the same, should be no issue.

That is one of the problems; all of the tubes are shorter and of course are not bent the same.
