Apparently Gunner has abandoned his inquiry here. Something we said?

I stepped out for dinner with the family - sorry I didn't notify anyone.

I really appreciate all the advice, and I'm not blindly ignoring what anyone is trying to tell me. But I'm the guy with the ground truth here: whether it's technically perfect or not, this engine has been running with this oil level for 6200 miles with absolutely no sign of overfill problems (foaming, burnoff, overheating). Maybe when I do a meticulously calibrated fill next time I'll discover why - but for now I'm good and content to leave it as is.

I've stained a few driveways in my life. Trust me, I know what I'm doing.
