thanks for the response. really shouldve posted a pic of the gap between the head and the ac box. i do not think i can attach anything there. and this fill tube may be made to accomodate the extra deep trans fluid pan.I use a factory stick and tube that attaches to the rear of the passenger side head.
ok. so it CAN be mounted on the ac case itself? the black plastic case? thanksI have a Lokar flexible dipstick for my th400 mounted to my AC case, I have Rivnuts in the case and made a couple of short spacers to mount it.
naw. its stainless and flexible. actually a pain in the *ss to put stick back inthte tubeIs the fill tube rigid? If so the AC box is a bad idea. Motor and trans will move around. Factory attached that tube either to the back of the head or the trans bellhousing.
Yup. I tried to pour some fluid into it and it all came out . Think ima need to uses a fluid transfer pump.They're a pita to fill too. My buddy Bill mounted his to the firewall with rivnuts. I'd make a bracket that bolts to the back of the head and then bolt the dipstick tube to that. You need to verify tube depth though and make a new mark if necessary. It may not read anywhere near right.
Mine came with a special adapter that fits snugly in the opening and a short piece of clear hose. I just stick a funnel in it and pour slowly. Well it was a clear hose 20 years ago.Yup. I tried to pour some fluid into it and it all came out . Think ima need to uses a fluid transfer pump.
