Does anyone have a pic of where the oil dipstick bolt conencts to the motor?(94 camaro)

Does anyone know the bolt size/length this is?(3/8 16)

I've got everything put back in and forgot to hook up the dang dipstick tube, now I cant seem to find where it should be connected.

 

the bolt is metric. I'll see if i have one lying around real quick to get the size and i'll snap a pic of where it goes.

 

The bolt is an M6 bolt that is aprox. 3/8's of an inch long. It has a 10MM head. it screws in above the starter. i'm uploading a pic to give u an idea.

 

funny thing is i logged on here to ask the same question. the pic would be very helpful.

 

Here is the pic of where the oil dipstick bolt goes. You will c in the pic that i'm pointing to where it should go.

 

The bolt is definitely not metric. It should be a 1/4-20 x .56 and probably a 3/8 head.

I have never found any metric bolt that threads into the LT1 block.

All you have to do is put the dipstick in and see where the hole in the mounting tab lines up. Your bolt hole should be close by.

 

Ur right. I'm used to all the metric bolts on the tranny's and the hedders.

The pic should help them figure out where the tube bolts to. the motor is out of my car though. I hope it helps.

 

LaredoZ28: Thanks for the picture

I was asking this question because I believe my dipstick tub and bracket are a little tweaked and wasn't sure/couldn't see where it should be mounted to. I have almost no visibility to the left side of my motor due to my headers.

 

No Problem bro. I just happened to have a motor on the stand when i saw ur question so i snapped a pic while i had the chance.

 

shoebox saves me again. When I need to find something intricate (size and thread count of the dipstick tube mounting bolt) I literally search for shoebox and search in those for my subject! thanks again man.
