oil capacity?

I did an oil change in my 1991, 350 TPI and only needed 4.5 quarts. Does this seem right?

Re: oil capacity?

Capacity if 5qts. You didnt drain all of it somehow, either from a wrong incline or being too hasty

Dont worry about 1/2 a qt, you'll likely burn that much off before the next oil change
