Yes, some Ford 289 engines had the dipstick located on the side of the block instead of the front. This design was more common in certain applications, particularly in later models or specific configurations. The side-mounted dipstick was used to accommodate various engine setups and improve accessibility, depending on the vehicle’s design.
