Who has installed a set of Kodiak manifolds on their truck, and what did you do with the dipstick tube? I suppose it's too late for me as I just got done cutting my tube, sleeving it with some larger tube, positioning it as needed, and welding it back up. I'm just kind of curious how everyone else did it.
Kodiak manifolds and engine oil dipstick tube

Just bolt the manifolds up, it's tight on the dipstick but has not caused me any problems in 3 years.
There was no way in hell mine would clear. There was maybe 1/4" of clearance between the head and the manifold. I didn't take any pictures of my dipstick, but I cut and welded a bunch of pieces of tubing together to make it go around the manifold and bolt back up to the factory support bracket at the top of the tube. It was ugly, but it worked.
I couldn't find my old pics so I took new ones. Strange there are a couple different styles of kodiak manifolds...
Mine weren't even close too fitting either. I had to do the same as josh and bend it around and weld it back together.
