Why do you not what opinions on a far cheaper and superior product?

The discussion here has been about the v8. Can the dipstick be added to the v6 auto transmission?
thanks

There is no good place to mount the B&M. I have a Lokar that is similar, and the mounting is not optimal. The only thing to screw it to at its end is the insulation. The JRE is how I would go if I was to do it again.

After doing more research online and reading everyones comments on this thread I pulled the trigger and ordered the JRE. While not perfect it seems all things considered it is the Best option!

I’ve had both, JRE is the way to go. B&M is just sitting in the garage
