You're off by a quart. Stock takes just under 5 quarts. With a cooler you're closer to 6. I think I used about 5.5qts with mine which seems right visually.

Stock oil capacity is 5 1/8 quarts.

Any time I've done 5 1/8, I ended up having to siphon some out. Perhaps since I use the slightly smaller K&N filters.

Interesting. I use the HP1008 (the small one) and 5 1/8 is a perfect fill.

I thought you could run up to ~1/2 a qt over full without issues.
