Standard maxwedge pan takes 4 quarts to the baffles.

For the street add 1 quart for the filter to those 4 as a minimum. That is after your first oil change since a new engine will “use up” at least a quart filling all the passages. That’s the least I would use to tool around with.

For track use I would add 4 + 1 + 2. 4 in the sump, 1 for the filter and 2 that are in suspension at high engine speed. Better more ( 1 quart) than less as long as you have a windage tray in it.


As for using a Hemi pan I have one on my 62 and with the standard k frame it just touches on the passenger side radius of the k frame to the pass side front of the sump. I would take that radius of the k frame and remove it as much as you can staying away from the spot welds of the k frame.
