6 qts and a regular filter. Dunno about you guys running only 5 qts to prevent windage, last I checked 7qts and a regular filter still wont hit the crank...5 qts and a corner and high rpm MIGHT spin a bearing though...

All GTO's get 6.5 to fill it. Funny thing is the owner's manual says to add a quart when racing and then drain that quart back out when finished. So that's 7.5 quarts!

I run 6 plus long filter, then added 1 qt for a/x and left it in. No problems yet.

I don't get it. I use a regular sized filter and my car has always taken 6 quarts to reach the full mark.
