Hi, Can you post or email me pictures of a SBC looking down at the dip stick,right side stick, with exhaust header and valve cover visible.

Thanks

Hear you go, hope it shows you something, I modded up a old Pontiac accessory drive spacer from decades ago, making a D shape outta it, instead of round, that is the spacer from the header flange to the dip tube....

I"m say about a inch deep....

Thanks for the photos. I was also wondering, what years or model SBC had right hand dipsticks?
 
86+ has pass side dipstick.....that's the 1pc rear main seal blocks like the one I have, the oil pans for the driver side dipstick blocks are cheaper and there are way more to choose from....
Do you need a pan? I'm going to install my 7qt pan soon and I'll have my stock style baffled pan for sale :D
