Oil dip stick
#2
all kinds of fun could follow this thread------
just to clarify the question---are you asking whether the dipstick will fit the diameter of the tube OR whether you will get the correct reading as to the oil level in the pan? quick solution --- change the oil & filter on the 330 --to proper amount of oil. give her all the dipstick she can handle --- score the dipstick at the proper level. that 330 will have a smile for quite a time.
length & girth ---important factors here

The dipstick (called an "indicator" in the parts book) must match the tube. If you swap both the tube and the dipstick from the 350 to the 330, then yes it will read correctly. The oil pans are the same on both motors, as is the location on the block where the tube inserts.

Unlikely. Of course, all you have to do is drain the oil, install new oil and filter, run the engine for a few minutes to distribute the oil, let it sit, and then mark the new dipstick at that oil level.
