If its the stock dip stick it will be to short for that oil pan. You will need a longer stick to reach the bottom of the pan. It will always read low. Mines the same. I just put 8 qts in it and mark the old dip stick. Worth looking at.

I use a 7 quart Milodon pan, I only run 7 quarts in it. It says I'm "full" at 10 quarts....but that's just a waste of power to have that much oil in it.
I think that's exactly where im at. 10 qts would put it at full. ill have to crank the torsion bars up to support that much oil!!!

If trans fluid is pushing out of the dipstick (which I think is what you were saying) then the easiest fix it to get the NHRA required locking dip stick (check your rule book). No, its coming out the vent. It does have the required locking dip stick. im saying ive got to uch in the trans also.


Eh…you did see that there wasn’t a double “O” at the beginning of those right? A 0.08x light will put you on the trailer in a hurry, a 0.008 light is another story. Not bashing the OP, just an observation. Not bad for a first time out with a new combo.
