Just read up on the oil overfill threads and make sure it doesn't happen to you!

Since my C7 was overfilled from the factory (luckily with no damage to air intake/filter), I requested 9.3qts (are you Z51?) of ONLY MOBIL 1, took the other quart home. Never needed to add any more.
Good luck, let us know!
