I know what the owners manual says and I had a GT that took 6 quarts, but today when I changed my oil it took 7 quarts to fill. Am I going crazy?

Just a little bit of trivia.
Longer rod anyone?
Little more stroke anyone?

Not a thing, like I said, just abit of trivia.Uncle Meat said:And what does any of that have to do with the oil capacity on a 4.6 Liter DOHC Supercharged Cobra motor?
U.M.
Can you show me some proof on this. I find it hard to believe they would just ignor an oversight like this. I wonder if the MT equipped Mach I uses the same oil pan?ttown said:6qts with a new filter is all you need. Ford in there wisdom didn't remake the dipstick when they went from the 5qt oil pan to the 6 qt oilpan back in 01 when they were changing everything. I wouldn't overfill it.
Exactly.Jetracer1000 said:ok another dumb question. If you only put in 6 qts how will you ever really know when you need oil?
