Capacity is 8 quarts with filter. The most I've ever put in is about 7 quarts. You just can't get all the old oil out.
Check this thread for filter numbers.

You can drain all of the oil by installing a drain tube on the bottom of the pan. Mercury makes a kit for this.

It can be done. You just need to find a "short person" who teaches Yoga.

It already had a hose installed that is ziptied up by drive oil resevoir I just ran it out through the plug hole in the back and drained it into a pan. I couldn't imagine having another engine stuffed in there there's no room now!!
