    Subject: Oil capacity
    Can someone tell me how much oil an O-540 E4 B5 engine should hold? My engine will only keep about 8.5 quarts (dipstick reading when cool) and deposits the rest on the belly and tail. Mods to the engine are: Fuel Injection, 10:1 pistons, inverted oil system Aircraft: Harmon Rocket II Thanks, Jim

    Jim, Mine is a C4B5. Following a change, it takes 11-12 quarts to get to a level of 9 on the stick (after running it). If the tail is lifted to level flight attitude, it indicates 10. The C4B5 is made to sit nearer level which explains the increase. I also have the inverted system.
