Helllllllo sorry quick question! I have sikky headers and i realized i just got my oil change because it was 5k miles and the oil dipstick had it on half it should be. Well after i changed my oil (10 quartz) i still have half of the oil dipstick level on the dipstick . Is this because the header bends the dipstick tunnel? Looks like it was bent anyone else have this problem ? Tyty

Not that it helps but my sikky oil dipstick was bent to *******. I had a heck of a time installing it but finally was able to straighten it out enough for proper fit and oil reading. You may need to unbolt yours and carefully try to massage it to proper form :/

Thanks for the response, being bent would. Cause it to read lower than normal correct ?

Yes. Putting a radius in the tube with soak up length on the stick.

I have sikky headers and have no such issues

I keep going back and forth between sikky and PPE, but reading PPE's site today's their new header design doesn't interfere with the factory dipstick. Do all sikky headers interfere with the dipstick?

Ditto...I think all these Sikky problems are related to the quality of the install...just my 2 cents
