why can't a 911 oil tank be mounted on the drivers or passenger side of a 914.Is it thicker due to the wide flares?

Eric, good question... Honestly i forget (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)

Its more than stock, but how much? Really, with any 911 engine, i'd say start with 6-7 and run it. Let it warm up and then check it.

I just rebuilt a 3.0SC motor not too long ago, and i filled the oil up to the bottom of the dipstick, and then let it fully warm up. Just in the oil expansion between cold/hot, it raised 1.5 inches up the 911 dipstick! But, since the SC's have the front oil cooler and lines, it normally takes about 11 quarts.
