Moroso 7 quart pan, 7" inch deep sump, part number 20760

Mellings HV63 pump, high volume

Wix 51515 oil filter, stock size

Should the total oil volume be 7 quarts with filter or 8 quarts with oil filter?

The instructions make no mention of this.

Thanks!

By the time you add up what is in the oil passages I think it is 8qts total

7 quarts plus whatever the filter, accusump, etc., holds. Get a quart container, add water a quart at a time up to the baffle, tray, full mark or wherever the oil level should be to verify. I expect 8 quarts total is fine.


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

I bought this Moroso pan on my 63 back in 2011 but I dont remember the part # as I would have to try and find the bill. But I can tell you I put 7 qts in it with the filter change and it reads right on full. Ron

I have that pan and it's 8 quarts with filter.Not to disagree with Ron,but that's what my pan takes to fill it.The pan is a old one,purchased in 1973 by my Dad.

Actually I should add its more like 7-1/2 qts to fill mine as I add a botle of the zinc additive when I change the oil. I use a stock dipstick and it reads a hair over the full mark with the 7-1/2. But I know from years at the Dodge dealer not all factory dipsticks read right on the money. We had a few that had TSB's where we had to cut some off the dipstick tube as some were just to long and still read low with the proper amount of oil. So I may have the same 8 qt pan as maybe my dipstick tube is of a little ? I have no problem with 7 or 8 qts as I only race about once a year and even with just 7 qts its no problem. Ron
