how much oil does a 496HO use?
I'm burning about 1/2 quart every 5 hours. Running fairly hard, probably a good 1 to 1.5 hours of each 5 hours is at WOT. My motor has low hours, around 100. Checkmate 270 Convincor. Runs very smooth, no problems.

454 mags.... just added 1 quart to each after 12 hours, brought both to a strong FULL on the dipstick. Figure both are using same amount, I'd be worried if one took more than the other.
