This Canton 7 qt pan is actually 6 qts in the pan and 1 in the filter for a total of a 7 qt. system. First fill you need to calibrate you oil dip stick. My pan leaked at the rear. Changed to the cork gaskets and still leaked. Canton sent me a new pan and I only have 180 miles on the 514 and only had a small drop in the rear. Re-torked pan the other day and will see what happens from here.

If I had to do it over again, I would leave the stock SVO rear sump pan on it and put a accusump on. If my pan starts leaking again I will go back to the SVO stock pan. Ford developed the motor I think they know what they were doing with the pan!
