Re: 340 engine oil capacity, off topic?

["Gary H." <spigot2039@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, I don't know about dem dare modern Mopars. :) A 1964 273 car I used to own always had the "shorty" version of the filter; but I bought that Dart very used, long ago, and don't know what filter Mopar twisted on at the factory. Always assumed it was the short version.

Thanks,
Gary H.
