I was hoping someone with a dual sump pan (factory on ford crate engines) would chime in and tell me how much oil they put in when the change oil and change filters....but its important they have a oil cooler as well. 5qt pan, change filter and add a quart for that (6 total) and assume all oil in cooler and lines stays put??? is that safe????

bullseye, you're getting all wound up and posting this query in three different forums on this site and have been given good info.
To summarize.............
It don't matter what pan, oil cooler, length of oil lines or what have you....... just make sure that you have the correct oil stick and tube for your engine. Fill to the full mark and be done with it! Most of us change the oil/filter way before the oil is 'shot' so what stayes in the engine/cooler/lines is not going to degrade the new oil. Whether it takes four, five or six quarts to hit the full mark is immaterial.
