How long's your dipstick?

My dipstick is small,My wife ran off with some con named rod ,Just not enough friction,and to much clearance ,,,,,Lol As others posted drain oil fill with new ,And remark with hacksaw blade ,,,,,,,,,,

 

I had to bump this ,Just went to page 2 and This thread was on top of I like big butts 46 ford ,It just wasnt right............

 

mine's as long as a cat's tail, as long as you measure them the same way...


(from the butthole to the tip)....

 

made think of this guy

 

This sounds like a waaaaaaaay too personal question!!!

 

or wet

 

we are still talking about the oil measuring dip stick right???
hotrodladycrusr you always finish my sentences,thhanks

 

so you're probably not single right??

 

my question is this, if you built or modified an oil pan so you now had to figure out what the oil level should be how would you go about this, what is the correct oil level in relationship to the crankshaft center line for any given engine, remember it is no longer a stock oil pan so quoting a volume won't work, it has to be a distance from the crank center or from the lowest point of the rotating assembly.

 

distance from the crank? below it a bit. Unless your building a high-end competition mill, just set it so that the oil level is below your crank or windage tray when at rest.

Set the pickup about 1/4- 3/8" off the pan floor and call it good. I weld legs to either side of the pickup so that if you ever cram the pan into something, the legs keep the pan from shutting off the pickup opening.

I like baffles and trap doors, but the one i like the best is a shelf above the pickup that keeps the oil from climbing the back wall of the pan when launching the car. they make bolt on ones for sbc - oil pump baffle is what they call them, i think

I guess it's kinda like that whole "beauty is in the eye of the beerholder" type thing...

So your dipstick to the left...good thing for your tailor to know...

 

You know your dipstick is long enough when you get past the used part.

 

The Volunteer Firemen have a saying, "it doesn't matter how big the hose is as long as you can put out the fire".

 

Does this have anything to do with the porn popup Ryan mentioned ?
"AND THE BOWTIE ROLLS ON"

 

I dunno does pop corn and pop porn have anything in common?

 

True, but it takes a long time to get to England in a row boat

 

It may take a while, but isnt it about the journey not the destination?


hell, I dont care if she gets there as long as I do

 

Long enough to know how deep and cold the water is.

 

mine's bigger than your is.........

 

My ole lady does the dipstick booth at the county fair every year. She is an expert .
