So, you guys may not know, but my 6 the 30th one down the line in Dec 1969 had a few mods from back in the day when it was a test mule for a Socal Porsche high performance shop in the South Bay.
One cool future was a 911 oil level gauge and 911 sender in its factory 914-6 tank. Today I added a quart, and this was done in the way the factory manual says to do it. Now my car has and a GT oil cooler up front and it takes more oil.
I warmed it up with a 1 mile drive and then checked it on level ground and it needed one quart to bring it between the min and the maximum line. As shown in the photos.

Just so you know.
Its kind of hard to see the oil level when the oil is very clean as it is a transparent gold against a goldish plated dip stick.
