Re: 302 Oil capacity
Gotcha. Volume probably is the same at the same level. Have to apologize, was trying to do three things at once when I was running through the thread. Didn't take my time to catch the details, trying to get out the door. Just got back home. I warned ya'll I was nuttyBoss/Cyclone wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 5:32 pmJoe, sorry this is hard to explain. The sump is about an inch deeper but the sump area is narrower front to back so it still only hold 5 quarts total including the filter, same as the older pan.

Bingo!
My apologies, Mike. I knew the vehicle code was for Maverick but didn't cross-reference the engine.
Engine part codes for '65-'72 are here, but I couldn't find that code in the list. Evidently, this list is model specific.

Well, I don't remeber the block casting code, but when I brought it home back in November I did look them up and the block was coded for 76 Mustang 2. My dipstick tube is the same length so I definitely have the wrong stick. I'll be changing it.
