I had one chromed. The dipstick tube bolts to my ceramic coated long tube headers and I don't know if the header transfered heat or what, but the chrome dipstick tube turned an awsume color of yellow and blue in one cross country trip. Quite a few people have looked in Ole Red's engine compartment, but only one gearhead noticed the chrome tube. Thinking of making one out of stainless and polishing it. Maybe next winter.

Thanks Jim, hadn't thought about the heat transfer and turning the chrome. Your engine is impressive.....
