Mine doesn't have an oil cooler and it takes exactly 6 quarts to the top mark. Yours will probably take 6.5 or so. I'm sure somebody will chime in with the exact figure.

Legend has it that these things like to maintain a level halfway between the marks, although none of mine have ever acted that way. Point is though, that you might be chasing your tail if you try to maintain it on the top mark.

Speaking of oil changes, let us know what brand of oil filter you plan on using. Hint: if it's marked "Made in India" or "Hecho in Mexico", that would be the wrong answer.
