dont worry about cutting the stud off the bolt , just swap it to the front main and torque to 90 ft lbs , on the dip stick you can dump in 5 qts of oil , new filter and run for a min , check with the dip stick you have , if it does not touch you use a tubing cutter and cut the tube shorter , alittle at a time , until reads full , if the stick reads to high remark the stick with a file , do this if you can not find the one you need ,
