Hey, i tried to steer the back on track with a post about chrome. No luck, this thread needs a front end alignment?
I tried.... now I can't get The Song by Queen out my head. Fat Bottom Girls. Help! Stop Making me think. It hurts when I do.
Oh yah. Here's a 2008 catalogue, with Chrysler, Chevrolet, Ford all packed into it. These catalogues were so valuable, because for example if you were buying a cam, they would give you the recommended stall converter, and gears. They really come in handy. The Mopar catalogue is like gold to me. I mean, look at the parts on the cover.Yall are showin me something I didn't know. I never knew PAW had separate catalogs for different makes. Cool.
Ribbed for her pleasure?I love the old ribbed early slant six valve cover anyway. Course, that won't work for a hydraulic lifter head. I'm like you. I enjoy refurbishing old stuff too.
I have fallen and I cant get upI had a Mr Gasket chrome dipstick years ago. Yaaaa it leaked but it was pretty doing it.
No, for mine.Ribbed for her pleasure?

Speaking of dip sticks, I haven't found a dip stick that doesn't give problems on the last 4 new builds. What's the best one or what's the trick to install?
Sorry to derail the thread.

I seem to recall a deal where you tap the hole and use a fitting and tube. Maybe a flare nut or something? Seems like there could be some improvement with a little creativity.I’ve used stock oil sticks and one from Summit. I recalibrate and dipstick I buy during my first fluid fill up.
I agree 100%! I've always thought the press fit dipstick tube was horse feathers. The thing to do, IMO would be to tap to the closest NPT thread and use an NPT fitting with female inverted flare on the outside. That way, you can use brake/fuel line for the dipstick and it's easily removable.I seem to recall a deal where you tap the hole and use a fitting and tube. Maybe a flare nut or something?

10 k.I SO want to have her do one in an American flag scheme. Maybe one day.
Derail what??? The listed valve cover has been sold, paid for, and shipped. Lessons hopefully learned. Know what you are looking for, do your research, if in doubt ask for more info and pictures, do more research so you know what it’s worth, know what you are willing to pay with insurance. Then hopefully install and enjoy the product you worked and saved for.
Let me add one or two more things maybe three. Slant 6’s are ugly, slow, and who on Gods good earth would want one. Especially when they could have a 318.

But to prove your point, I sold it because this stole my heart. I put a bunch of work into that slant build and kicked her *** to the curb for the Commando.That’s beautiful. I regress
