Reply to "DIP STICK LENGTH MODIFICATION"

quote:
there are a few other pans out there cheaply made for drag racing that ARE deeper than stock, and with those you will need a custom length dipstick.

I believe my friend Jack has mis-stated what he was trying to share. A deeper pan does not require a different dipstick, however it DOES require a longer oil pump pick-up to place it near the bottom of that deeper pan.

Oil levels are established so as to be at a correct level in regards to the rotating crankshaft. Not too high, and not too low. That level is not dependent on the type of oil pan.
