Why not just go OEM on the dipstick?

I rouded my old one out too, but the replacement I got from Vortech had a much bigger allen key socket and has been fine ever since. Yes they are overpriced. (Typical of spares).
Sorry I can't remember if it's 001 or 002. All I know is that the other brass plug on mine is a breather.

Anyone know the length of a 0deg mounting dip stick? Ripp emailed me back and said they are 6" long and don't have a 0, 40, 45 deg mounting option like vortechs site.
