look up the parts Numbers in the Parts manuals on here:Foxed.ca and compare them.

also,you can now post in the Specific Sections as your post count is now adequate.

FC dipstick is not the same. It is not mostly an FC engine, just the front cover. The castings are all FD.

Length is 13.25" from the base of the seal that sits outside the tube to the tip. It is the same as the FD, which I use on both my 13B-RE and 20B, just has a much shorter handle portion. I just think it looks better.

S4 N/A dipstick is 14", meaning that the full mark would actually be running a quart low.

20B is the one with the long handle
