Jerry,

I would feel much better with a minimum of 7 quarts. The Greddy RX8
aftermarket oil pan is also larger than stock.

Thanks Bobby,  it looks like the Renesis is running on  nearly 1.5 qts. less oil than the 13B.  Jerry

Jerry,

On Bruce T's recommendations I am planning on using the older 13B pickup tube. He said it would need to be modified to fit with Fred's mounting plate.

I have attached the oil info from the RX8 shop manual. It looks like the
6 port has more oil capacity.

Can anyone tell me if the Renesis pick up tube bolts up to the oil
pump
the same as the 13 B?   I am trying to determine if I can use the  13
B
pick up tube in a custom oil pan for a Renesis.   If not, the Renesis
pick up tube will  have to be  modified.
FYI,The 13 B oil pan is two inches deeper than the Renesis pan and holds
158 oz.  The Renesis oil pan holds 96 oz.

   At oil change how much oil does the Renesis take?   The 13B takes 5
qts with filter.     Thanks,   Jerry
