Whoops, that should be add 1 quart with oil *filter* .... Thanks, Gary H. -----Original Message-----The reference I have says 4 quarts, add 1 quart with oil filer. Should be the same as the other LA motors,like the 273 in a 1965 Barracuda.Thanks, Gary H. -----Original Message-----My wife's 37 Plymouth hot rod has a 340 in it. We haven't had it all that long. I changed the oil and it only took 4 quarts to fill it, including the new filter. Is that right? I'm used to the 383, which takes 5 quarts.
