Any one with this pan on their car know how many quarts the engine takes to make full on the dipstick, including the filter?

Should be 5 qts or close to it depending on the filter used...

Thanks for the responses. I've been seeing 4 or 5 qt pan only. Wondering if anyone had first hand experience.

There seems to be some confusion about the actual pan capacity, some pans advertised as being a "five-quart pan" actually hold only four quarts but the whole system (including the filter) holds five quarts.

Yes the specs are confusing...I'm using a NAPA gold filter and it takes 5 qts to fill to the full mark...Some filters are bigger, some are smaller that's why my first post is worded the way it is..

If it IS actually a 4 qt sump I'd verify that & put 4 qts in on a level surface & mark the stick at that point. The sump level is what is important
