460 CHROME dipstick - where 2 get?

Hi Gang,

About to finish up the top end in Harrison and slide the pulsating monster into the depths of the engine compartment. Pretty much used chrome and polished aluminum for all the engine components, but fail to find the dipstick for the 460 listed anywhere. Jegs and Summit do not list them for the 460 big block. Can somebody please point me in the right direction (a direction that is NOT towards a Ford dealer, please....) to get one of these to finish up Harrison?

first off, try lokar. they make a whole lot of stuff like that. also, try ford racing, but i think all in all it will depend on what type sump you have(they have different dipsticks). good luck with it though,

Indeed, the engine came from an Econoline 350 workhorse...I need to remember that when the time comes. Thanks for the tip - I'll go and try and find "Lokar". Hey, if you're ever in Rome, Georgia; keep your eyes open for a white blur - I'll either be on the road or at the fuel stop...
