It is dependent on the engine. Once you know what your engine is then go with what the engine builder/manufacturer says, NOT with what Backdraft says.

Much thanks
No one can tell you what type of oil, what type of filter or how much oil without you first providing what your engine setup is (stock 5.0 pan, dry sump, etc, etc. Once you know what your engine setup is then go with what the engine builder says, NOT with what Backdraft says.
