It is weird, when I bought it, Canton advertised it as a 7 qt pan. Summit still says 7 qts. On that page you linked, Canton says 9 qts in one place and 8 qts in another. I don't know what they want.

How far down should the oil be when the motor is not running? If I can get a measurement from a known point (block pan rails or bottom of the timing cover) I can fill it to spec, then reset my oil fill mark on the dipstick.
