So not sure if this is the correct place to post this but haven't heard of anyone else having this problem.... I recently did a track day at Roebling road and the rubber or plastic piece on a 1g dipstick that seals to the dipstick tube disintegrated and fell down the tube into the oil pan... apparently the heat between the exhaust runners where the dipstick sits gets too hot. The manifold is ceramic coated. I am curious if anyone has had this happen or has any ideas of a solution... I was thinking about a billet handle if there is one... or a universal flexible dipstick to route it somewhere away from the exhaust... anyone have any ideas?
