Subject:Type IV oil dip stick tube fitting? (NVC)
From:Roger Reynolds
Date:Fri, 26 Apr 2002 21:29:30 EDT

Does anyone out there know where I might be able to find a fitting that would
allow me to add a dip stick tube to the pulley end of a type IV engine in
place of one of the ovalish block off plates near the bottom of the engine
(instead of having the tube enter through a hole in the engine case).
I have successfully transplanted an engine from a 412 into my 914 but have
had no way to check the oil level except to do an oil change.

TIA,
Roger
