Description

Engine swaps and header installations can block access to a standard transmission-case-mounted dipstick. This bellhousing-mount dipstick is built for GM's Turbo-Hydramatic 400 (TH400/THM400) transmission, offering a shorter, more direct routing path when headers, crossmembers, or other engine bay components interfere with standard dipstick placement.

It's commonly used in TH400-equipped Chevrolet Camaro, Chevelle, Nova, and Corvette; GM C/K-series trucks, Suburban, and Blazer; Pontiac Firebird and GTO; and other GM RWD platforms using the TH400 from 1964 through the 1990s.

The dipstick uses a flexible braided stainless steel tube measuring 16-1/4 inches and mounts at the bellhousing. It is a fixed, non-locking design.

Featuring a chrome-finished aluminum handle, the dipstick adds a polished, show-quality appearance to the engine bay.
