OCK should not change the volume for routine oil change. The cooler and lines don't drain.

Default Huh???? No, man! I'm stock right now...so 7qts. Putting in new OCK...8qts. I don't need to add...

2.5qts for an OCK. That sounds like a lot!

Default Just get 9 to be safe. You will use the extra before it goes bad. <edit>

Try to fill the cooler before you attach the hoses. Then go heat up the oil and re-check. Top off as needed.

Default Nope...most likely not. So much other crap going on that I won't be able to make it for..

the first time in 4 years! Parents are bummed about it. But $$$ is VERY low right now due to purchase of new house,etc. But I'll definately be up there soon, so I'll let ya'll know!
