Default How much oil?

Might consider filling with 9 quarts for the pan, 1 quart for the filter (or 2 if 2 filters), and another 1 quart for the oil cooler. Check the dipstick...if full, run engine to warm up...wait for oil to drain back to pan and check level again and add until the full mark if needed. 9If you check the dipstick before warm up the reading will probably be above full due to the oil not being in the filter/filters).
