How much oil do you run in ls1 and how much is too much?

I put in the 5.75 qts right to the full mark.
Those of you bashing Fram should take a look at the Fram Ultra Guard. It really is a quality filter, and a bargain at Walmart prices.
Those of you running the longer filter, aren't you a little worried about it bottoming out, as it sticks down below the oil pan?

i once didn't pay attention and put in over 7 qts, not sure how much but I was well over 1" above the full mark on dipstick and definitely noticed it when the engine was running. an oil change i usually do 6 to 6.5 qts and keep oil level not more than 1/2" over the full mark hot, measuring right after shutting engine off. that way you know the crank isn't whipping into the oil.
