I have another question. The pan has a small port for a dipstick on the passenger side front side of the pan. Mine is installed in the old filter mount location on the drivers side (car has a remote oil filter setup). I pulled the dipstick and ran it outside of the tube to see where it would end up in the pan (from under the car) and it looks like it's about right. Doesn't that pan have a windage tray that would conflict with the dipstick in that location? Seems to slide in with no problem and seats good.

I'm about ready to drain all the oil, pull the pan and start over so I know this thing is right. Right now I have 10 qts in the car (including filter) and I'm not getting a reading.
