If you didn't include filling the filter before install, that could be your extra pint (1/2 qt.).

What I thought he may have done is filled the filter before install, and added 5 1/2 to the crankcase.

Bahrain447 never ever give up . this is to much fun and we need to really find out why all of us are getting these numbers. aim am assuming there might be a larger oil tank on some of the cars . and i had a pickup from ford one time that took 7 quarts to fill it up and had 2 dip sticks on it also . one in the front and one in the back of the motor . never did know why this happened
