I have a '66 GTO with a 389 engine that I recently bought. This is a 4bbl w/o air. I am wondering if anyone can tell me the exact length of the dipstick for this engine? I have two, one is too long and the other too short. I just changed oil/filter and after filling according to the book, neither show the correct amount.

My GTO also has a 2 speed powerglide transmission and after climbing under today I saw that the sending unit wire is disconnected and placed out of the way. My question is what is the sending unit for? I have no "idiot" lights for the transmission. Is this for proper shifting?

Thanks !

Bob
