How many qts of oil are there in a 502 GM crate engine? Any oil recommendations.
Thanks

* OUTSTANDING PROTECTION ************highest rated oil protection level
ID suggest starting with 5 qts IN THE OIL PAN PLUS PREFILL THE OIL FILTER then verify on the dipstick after you let it run for 30 seconds and turn it off that the dipstick still reads the oil pan oil level reads correctly, if it needs a bit more add it!

1. 5W30 Pennzoil Ultra, API SM = 115,612 psi
I have not been able to find this oil with the latest API SN certification. The bottle says, “No leading synthetic oil provides better wear protection . For once, a product hype turns out to be true.
zinc = 806 ppm
phos = 812 ppm
moly = 66 ppm

2. 10W30 Lucas Racing Only = 106,505 psi
zinc = 2642 ppm
phos = 3489 ppm
moly = 1764 ppm
NOTE: This oil is suitable for short term racing use only, and is not suitable for street use.

3. 5W30 Mobil 1, API SN = 105,875 psi
zinc = 801 ppm
phos = 842 ppm
moly = 112 ppm

4. 0W30 Amsoil Signature Series 25,000 miles, API SN = 105,008 psi
zinc = 824 ppm
phos = 960 ppm
moly = 161 ppm
