    Can any owner of a 1974 250 - 6 cyl. Comet please tell me the actual length of their transmissionsdipstick? Mine is 11" in which several members have already told me it's too short (which does me o good) when all I want to know is how long it's actually supposed to be so I can buy the proper lengthed one?

    Thank you

    Never ask a guy how long his dipstick is, he'll only lie!
