Does the top dip stick tube reach above your exhaust? I have an A/C dipstick and without the upper tube, the lower section is between #2 and #4 exhaust ports. My point is that I used a different dipstick and remarked it after the oil settled after an oil change. I was wondering how much longer the dipstick is on your engine that will allow you to shorten it so that the dipstick reads the way that you want. I couldn't shorten mine because it was already too short to begin with without the upper half installed. It's just an idea to give you a piece of mind knowing what the oil level was at any given time.
