Does anyone have a Vellios oil tank? And if so can you measure the length of your dipstick?
Thanks, Rob Attached thumbnail(s)

Your best bet is to calculate the amount of oil that should be in your system, and mark the dipstick accordingly. Do you have an oil cooler, and if so find the capacity, then factor the oil lines, and then add 9 quarts for most flat 6's. With 9 or 10 quarts in a dry sump system a half to a quart low isn't going to hurt anything. And of course always check the oil level with the car at operating temp, with the engine idling on a flat and level surface.
