It's probably easier to go to your local LM dealer Parts Dept. and buy one.
I screwed up mine while installing the Kooks Headers and bought a new one from Ray, 'TheDealer'.

No go on the Lokar's they do not have them for any Ford Engine or car that new.

Sucks because I really need one. Got the SW Maucat system and the dipstick tube will not go into the engine with the headers on tryed for 3
days to get it to work and just a total no go.

I think they goofed on the drivers side header. The egr tube didn't line up took some time to figure out a way to get that to work.

Then the steering rod was hitting one of the tubes had to do some grinding on that to stop the contact.

Now can not get the dipstick tube to work. Had my neighbor helping me and tryed little bends here and there worked with it for 3 days and just could not get the tube to work.

Hits a header pipe and because of that hits the motor mount as well. Between the two spots there is no way to line it up and get it into the engine.

I just installed a Lokar 2v dipstick and a trans tube and dipstick.

Beat you to it Doom!

So I take it this dip stick tube you got from Lokar works okay with them?!
Can you please provide a part number I am screwed right now and have to find one to use.

Get the one listed for a 4.6 2 valve.
Use a valve cover bolt to hold it on.

I have to get one cracked the end of the stock one trying to get it in past the headers the must have screwed up making the driver side one because even had problems with the EGR tube and steering linkage.

Again thanks for the info!!

Now just need the cash to order it which should be this week if all goes well!

Wish I had known I would have needed it from the start so I could have planed ahead of time and had it already.

If I had a week to week paycheck it would be cool but only getting money once a month blows.
