I just did an oil change yesterday and put the car on four jack stands to level it out. Took 5 quarts exactly since the K&N oil filter is smaller than the stocker.

I was going to make a similar comment.
My driveway has a slight downhill slope to it, so pointing the car down the driveway and jacking the front up results in a nearly level car.
Don't forget the wheel chocks!
