I have a 2004 silverado crew cab 1500 4 wheel drive and my question is how much oil with a short filter compared to the long filter?I put 6 quarts in with a short filter and its showing to much oil on the dip stick, so is it 5.5 quarts with short and 6 with long! Would be nice if owners manual would say how much goes in! Please someone help!

I put in 6 qts as per the manufacturer in my 2011 Silverado 5.3 and it always shows OVER the full line. The dealer said its fine, 6 qts is what it takes...actually they said 6.02 qts. They said they've pulled dipsticks out of different 5.3's and they have seen differences in the dipstick lengths of up to 1/2"....poor quality control and multiple manufacturers making the same part for Chevy.
