How many quarts in the stock 409 pan? 6 or 7?

models, Ive always used 6 qts oil change including filter. Dipstick reads full. I have heard others say 7 qts. I dont have literature confirming that.

409 oil pan

6 is what I remember. That was with the canister filter. Filter held 1 quart, pan 5.

I seem to remember some 409s were 4 in the pan and one for the filter for a total of 5. However maybe that's why many people say I'm one quart low.
