Flexible Engine Dipstick – Ford FE-Series, Push-In Block
Lokar’s ED‑5012 is a premium flexible dipstick designed specifically for Ford FE-series engines using a front-sump oil pan and push-in block mount. Built with a stainless braided housing and lined with PTFE, this dipstick withstands the extreme heat and vibration of performance engines while allowing tight routing around headers and other under-hood obstructions. The flexibility of the housing makes it easy to position for both function and appearance without compromising durability.
The inner dipstick cable is molded with factory-style oil level indicators, ensuring accurate and consistent readings. Its billet aluminum handle features a smooth, clear-anodized finish and seals tightly into the block using dual O-rings—eliminating the need for brackets or secondary retention hardware. This makes it a clean, reliable solution for both restorations and custom builds where header clearance is limited or aesthetics matter.
