I don't think so since the mag came from a truck or van that is rear sump. I think you need to find a car stick and tube.

NAH.
FIND OUT if it it'll work.
Drain oil, add four quarts. Dip it.
If it's on the stick, that's your ADD mark. If it's not on the stick, get a longer stick or use a tubing cutter and trim the tube two inches (assuming it doesn't have anything fancy and is just a tube), trim the cut, re dip.
Once you know where the add mark is, add a quart, and that's your full mark.
My magnum stick was pinned to the handle so I could trim and redrill and re pin as needed. Mine dipped too deep (not a problem I usually have) so I carefully measured and shortened the handle end until the factory marks lined up.
