How much oil?? 94Lt1
This may be a dumb question- but this LT1 is new to me...and I was wondering what the capacity was?? I saw a spec saying 4 Qts..I could have swore it was 5 total...HELP!

In my '95 with a filter I use a full 5 qt.; It calls for just under that but why waste good Mobil 1.

5 looks like it puts mine on the top level of operationg range and I use a acdelco PF 52 filter
Also the dealer brochure for my 95 says oil capacity is 5 not 4.5.... but maybe it's different for 94 but doubt it.

How much oil?
I have a 1996 and it takes just over 4 quarts plus the oil filter will make
it at 4.5 quarts.

Actually 4.5 puts mine in the top of the operating range- Seems strange that its less oil then my 84 used?? Wouldn't more oil be a benefit to High Perf engines???
Oh well...after asking- I found the owners manual tucked away...and it said 4.5 with filter for a 94...
