[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 16488673, member: 35549"] Back when I first got into 4V engines (2005ish) this was a big topic. Quite a few people on this board spun bearings. The common thread was running 6qts of oil. Someone did a video back then using clear valve covers and it showed how much oil is in the heads. The chains cause issues as well. It might've been Sean Hyland. I honestly don't remember. I believe the 03+ heads have better drain characteristics, but I'm not about to find out personally. Its not that hard to put in an extra quart and see where it lands on the dipstick. Plus it takes about 9 quarts to fill the pan to the rail. And this being a deep skirt block the oil is still a decent distance from the crank. Anyway, that's my experience. [/QUOTE]
