Trans Dipstick with headers question

[gtpterp]

Hey guys sorry if this is in the wrong section but I have a question about the trans dipstick and headers on an 00 GTP. I just put in ToG headers today and of course the dipstick won't go in easy without bending it...a lot. What is the best way around this? Just bending it (if so what about getting it secure with the bracket) or is there a dipstick I can get that will work with out modification. Thanks for the help in advance!

They make one That's braided and can bend around easily

Getting around the trans dip stick is a pain in the arse! I unbolt the dipstick so it can wiggle a little bit, then remove TB and slide the down pipe right in.

with that work with headers?

Bending/spinning the stock dipstick housing really shouldn't be a problem as long as the tube is fully seating into the trans and the dipstick slides in/out ok obviously. Possible to tack on a simple mount for the tube somewhere?

Togs require a specially bent tube or a lot of time bending it. You basically have to turn it into a pretzel to put them in.

works with my crappy pace setters...
