'73, 350
Hello,
I've just taken possession of my '73 Delta 88, has a small block 350,
I'm probably going to have many questions down the track, but first off,
noticed the dip stick sleeve is loose from the block, bit of a bugger of a
spot to get to, haven't investigated fully, looks like its meant to lock in
somehow with a bump & recess type setup, anyone had this happen,
regards, Cus

They are just stuck in the block.
I have had them come a little loose
before. If they aren't broken at the block
a few love taps on top of the tube with
a piece of hardwood to soften the blow
should get you fixed up. Good luck, welcome
and post a few pics of your car when you get a chance.

Well, fired it up on the weekend after oil & filter change, new plugs etc.,
runs really well, very quiet & smooth, still haven't got to the brakes, so just
static running. Generator light coming on though, put the meter on it,
was returning about 12.8v, (at idle) is that enough?
