Need a better designed oil pan

[Grey 65]

I probably have the lowest street legal BDR and I have been running the AVIAID Daytona Coupe pan from them for a few years now.. P/N 155-55363

I have never had an issue.

How much oil do you put in when you do an oil change? Trying to figure that out because the Aviaid website says that the 55363 pan is the 55361 6qt GT-40 pan but without the notch in the sump to accommodate the larger starter on the GT-40. As such, the Daytona Coupe pan (55363) can hold an additional half quart, bringing the sump capacity to 6 1/2 quarts. Running the WIX 51515 filter (the larger sized filter) will add another half quart(?). So, this comes out to about '7ish' quarts at each oil change? Just trying to figure out the total capacity.

To be honest I am not sure it is between 7.0 and 8.0. Before I installed the pan I had to cut the dipstick since it a universal length. So I mounted the dipstick to the pan cutting as required. Then I filled pan with water and marked dipstick for low and high. I then drained the pan, dried the pan and then installed on the motor.

Haha. I went through all of the same steps exactly!

I'm counting on around 7ish quarts total in the system.
