SBF Oil Dipstick - Screw-In Flexible

The PROFORM SBF Oil Dipstick - Screw-In Flexible is engineered for serious Ford engine builders and mechanics who demand reliable oil level monitoring in tight engine bay configurations. Whether you're running a classic small block or big block Ford in a street rod, race car, or restomod, this screw-in dipstick eliminates the guesswork when checking oil levels. The flexible design allows installation in applications where traditional rigid dipsticks cannot fit, making it an essential upgrade for custom engine swaps and modified vehicle platforms that prioritize both accuracy and fitment versatility.

Constructed from billet aluminum with braided stainless steel reinforcement, the SBF Oil Dipstick delivers durability and corrosion resistance in harsh engine environments. The 5/8-18 inch thread screw-in design ensures a secure, vibration-proof connection to your pan mount, preventing leaks and accidental dislodgement during high-RPM operation. The flexible construction accommodates routing around headers, turbo manifolds, and other tight-fitting components common in modified engines, while the stainless braiding protects the tube from abrasion and thermal stress. At just 0.85 lbs and measuring 24.75 inches in overall length, this dipstick provides full-range visibility without excessive weight or packaging penalties.

This dipstick is ideal for engine builders, hot rodders, and mechanics performing engine modifications on small block and big block Ford platforms, including 289, 302, 351W, 427, 454, and similar variants. The screw-in mounting system works with most aftermarket oil pans that accept 5/8-18 inch threads, making it compatible with both stock and custom pan configurations. Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic mechanical skills: simply clean the threaded hole, apply threadlocker if desired, and screw in firmly until snug. The natural finish stainless steel resists oxidation and blends seamlessly into any engine compartment aesthetic.
