Glenn I forgot who it was that told me 72 ounces was all I needed. I shuttered every time I thought about it.

I'm still new and learning but the best tool to have is good accurate data records and test whatever you can think of. The only way to know if your combo is helped is same day testing and weather data. If you try draining a quart of oil and know the weather slowed up .04 and the car ran the same number as your previous run then it still picked you up about .04.
Also when testing do 1 change at a time.

The further you move the oil level away from the crank the better.
