I used a Lokar TD-34L60EFM Flexible Braided Stainless Transmission Dipstick on my hot rod truck build with an LS3 and 4L65E trans. Worked fine although X2 on checking the length. Mine was too long and resulted in me underfilling the transmission. Discovered during first start when it wouldn't shift into reverse. I guessed at the right length (full mark 1/4" above bottom edge of housing) and later confirmed and slightly adjusted when I had the pan off replacing the leaking gasket. The Lokar is a nice piece, but good grief inflation at work. It was $100 on Amazon Feb 2021. No see it's $147. Ouch.
