Dean,
I have a 91 Monaco with 8.3 mech. I had a new 8.3 installed at Cummins NW
in Anchorage last July. The old engine always held 20 quarts at oil change.
The new engine has a 1 gallon bigger oil pan. We had to re-work the exhaust
because of the bigger pan but I did not like the way the exhaust was anyway.
The new engine held 28 quarts at first fill. The first oil change I did when we
got back to Seattle it held 24. So there is 4 quarts of oil running around
in there somewhere.

My manual says I have about 28 quarts of oil in the engine. I have
done six oil changes and each time have drained @ 20 quarts from the
system and filled with about twenty quarts. The quantity includes the
oil filter and spillage (which I always seem to accomplish).
My measurements are reasonably accurate. I have done the oil change
with the rear wheels on a 6 inch ramp and also on the ground with the
coach leveled.
What is your experience with this engine as to quantities at oil change?
Thanks
Dean
