My engine came with what was noted as a 10 qt. Canton
oil pan. I fill the
oil filter up with one quart, screw it on, and dump the remaining 9 qts. in.
Run the motor, dipstick says, 1/2 qt. down....right in the middle.
No problems so far...just uses a lot of gas when I keep my foot in it.
Bill 55-60 #s of
oil pressure. If I recall from my youth, the FE ran 7 qts. stock with a filter.
