I have a 68-69 1.9L engine in my 71 GT. The engine , for several reasons came out of a Kadett. A Kadett engine in a GT makes for checking the oil VERY akward. You have to snake your arm past the Weber, around the hot manifold, past the oil sender unit and wires, into the dark depths of an engine block and try to locate the black hole of the dip stick. Can't tell you how many time I have burnt my arm doing this. Is there any way short of replacing the oil pan with a dip stick on the drivers side to fix this problem? I thought about seeing if a tube might be able to be shoved into rhe dip stick hole and put in a longer reaching stick.
Has any one ever tried this?
