      i know this is old but did you ever confirm this? 5.5 and my dipstick is reading low. 6qts seems to put me right there on my ls3, autocraft pan, and stock dipstick.

      Call autokraft. Great guys. I had this same question and called they were very helpful in regards to recommended dipsticks and such. 5.5 qts is correct.

      You need to use the 4th gen Fbody dipstick for the correct reading.
