427 Oil Level Help
Time for a oil change so I drained the oil out of my superformance with a 427FE yesterday. I filled and replaced the filter and began to fill the motor with new oil.
When I bought the car I asked about oil capacity and the seller's broker told me it had a 7.5 qt system which really didn't seem right. Pics of the pan I have are attached- it measures 18" Long x 6" high x 12" wide. I'm assuming this is a 9 quart pan (I've emailed Aviaid to confirm).
Per Aviaid's instructions I found in other threads I added 8 quarts (should be low reading) and there is no reading after sitting overnight. I certainly don't want to overfill so I'm guessing from here on I need to just add, pressurize, and let drain down until I get the right reading? Just checking to see if there is an easier way based on where I'm at right now with the 8 qts. Thanks for the help!
