Anyone ever run aluminum tie rod connecting sleeves on the street?

I have seen billet aluminum tie rod sleeves advertised and was wondering if anyone uses these on the street. I had some concerns on strength and ability to withstand the stresses of running on the street.

This makes no sense to me

I really could use some good pics of a small block oil dipstick installed. I cannot understand why all of the new ones I find for sale are absolutely straight as an arrow, because the hole in the front of Aaron’s 360 is drilled at an angle that would have the dipstick pointing right into the fuel pump.

Wanted: 73 & up S6 to RB mounts

I need a set of 73 & up S6 to RB Shumacher mounts. If you have a set you are not using please let me know.
