that oil pan is to add extra quart or 2 of oil the windage tray helps keep oil of crank, fill it to the full mark.I use a longer oil filter at high rpms it can only help
Should have mentioned this... The dipstick says put in 5 quarts. It is not a Milodon dipstick I'm guessing? I put 7 quarts in and I have a large oil filter on there.
