    Oil Dipstick Relocation Bracket?

    Anybody running a billet valve cover and a Pusher intake?

    What are y'all using for an oil dipstick bracket?

    I can't find anything.

    What brand cover? Most of the dipstick brackets use the valve cover bolts to use adapter bracket

    Not sure what year truck you have, but found this one. Don’t know if it will fit your custom valve cover.

    Valve cover bolts won't work.

    Yes I see, your cover bolts are recessed. If the place that manufactured your valve cover doesn’t offer a solution it looks like you will have to fabricate or modify something. Wondering if you could get longer cover bolts and use some spacers to bring that bracket above the recess. Just a thought.

    Thinking maybe replacing 2 of the inside intake mounting bolts with studs and fabbing some kind arch bracket...just wasn't sure if something like that already existed
