PLEASE DONT USE IT IF YOU ARE NOT CERTAIN
Its imperative that you have the right dipstick for your engine. a little shorter or a little longer changes the oil level and could mean the difference between the correct amount of oil and a seized up motor.
I've got an 87-95 up engine in mine and I had to put a stupid looking "tuner" dipstick in mine when I built it. It's billet steel and looks like a Honda accessory....but I have the right amount of oil in the pan, and that the most important thing.
when in doubt order one..... I think I paid $6x.xx for mine
