I’m using the stock Manifolds, 327 motor mounts, still using the SM 420 and the Rockwell T221, runs great

Ok thanks, a measurement would greatly be appreciated.

do you have the dipstick that goes with the cast iron pan? I have a cast iron pan on my motor but I don't have the original dipstick or tube, thanks

Thanks you very much, I've been running 7 quarts, I just wanted to make sure i don't cause any damage, i haven't been happy with this engine since i put it in , its got a noise when its cold, sounds like piston slap and when its warm the valve trane is noisey, at some point ill have to pull it...

There are two plugs on each side of the pan I had one of them out, I put 7quarts in and the level wasn't up to the plug, I've been running 7 quarts, I made up my own dipstick tube, I'm not sure if I'm right or wrong .

Here is the pic of the Motor when I got it, I wish I could find some info on it
