Universal cases do have the hole for the dipstick, they also have the threaded
holes for the cross mount.

seen a universal case. Does it have the hole for the T3 dipstick fill tube, or
does it need drilled out? Thanks.

actual type 3 case, do you want a universal case?
Stephen Brannan <ozarkcycleworks@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Long sob story short: I
paid $2100 to a local shop (ReVolks) to build me a super reliable daily driver
motor for my squareback. They failed to inform me that the case was total junk
and built the motor anyway. The engine went 10 miles and spun a bearing. Upon
dissasembly, I discovered many problems. The work was beyond bad. The oil
pickup tube was not attached, mismatched old spark plugs, missing peices found
elsewhere in the engine compartment, hacked incorrect gaskets, missing teeth on
the "new" cam gear, broken cam bearing saddle, etc. Jeff Hamilton at the shop
blames me for abusing a motor he built only ten miles ago. My lawyer said I
didn't have good enough documentation to go to court. So I am rebuilding it
myself. I had the crank turned with new bearings and rods, but no case. I now
have everything to go inside. The cranks bearings I have are for a case align
bored 1mm. Oh yeah I also bought the car
through this shop and saw them forging the Bill of Sale. Yes I was stupid and
ignorant for trusting them. Sorry it turned into a rant. Thanks.
