The easy way to do this is take a hacksaw and cut the flange between the
tubes of the headers so the dipstick slides thru it The amc dipstick can be
a real pain to get out with out breaking, if it breaks it leaves a long
portion inside the pan which usually takes hours to remove. hot rodders have
been cutting out the flange material between the ports for years.

bring
the header above the dipstick and then put it in position. Is there a trick
to
removing the oil dipstick shaft?
