I'm in need of a dipstick tube for a '66 400, which I'm sure is the same as a '67 400. I e-mailed Walt, and he replied that they're no longer available.
OldsParts.com has 'em for $16. Any thoughts on that, or other sources?

That I do not know. He was using NOS till they were discontinued. I'm sure one of the 70-72 vendors would have a good unit.

Walt is also no longer "exhausted," he's been out of that for four years. Too bad, I wanted another of his sets.
