oil level, too high?

**** Grob, I ran that thing a half quart over forever before you stole it from me. Makes you wonder if the awesome oil pressure you get compared to others with similar miles has something to do with not starving the bearings of oil during hard acceleration and such during it's life. Of course there was the religious use of high flow & over sized oil filters too.

How many miles have you guys been using a bit extra? I would like to run 1/2 quart over, partially because I plan to get involved in auto x this summer, but have been worried about doing long term damage. Also I notice the mention of over-sized oil filters. Just to double check, its still fine with a regular sized filter, correct? I would run an oversized one but I can't because my headers are in the way.

I use the 3002 filter as well.
