[DeTomaso] Pantera Aviad pan

[Ken Green]

With the pan off, where should full be with respect to the rotating assembly?

AJ,

I find it curious that they claim the Cleveland pan is 9 quarts while the nominally identical Windsor unit is only 7 quarts?

Life is made more difficult with an aftermarket dipstick setup. 

The quality fix is to remove the pan, insert the dipstick and either verify that it is marked properly, or remark it as needed. 

Then put that much oil in, however much it is, and remember that number. 

If pulling the pan is too much effort, you can always just buy a standard 351W dipstick and tube and install that temporarily, fill the motor to the appropriate amount, then pull it and refit the custom Pantera setup and compare the results, and remark as needed.
