What are you guys doing to get the dipsticks back in? 2012 Ram 5.7l. Had to put new motor in so dipstick was removed. Installed jba longtubes now can't figure out how and where you guys are bending them.

Unbolt the header so you can move it around while you stick the dipstuck tube back in the hole,then bend the tube while you heave the header back into place. Or you can do like I did after breaking 2 tubes,and buy a custom fit flexible Lokar dipstick tube that slides into place easily,lol.
