If I turn off the engine and immediately pull the dipstick about 10 seconds later, the level is at the upper hole (top of recommended fill level). If the engine has been off for 5min or longer, the level is just above the letter H. This way, a running motor has a full sump when the cooler is primed.

Remember that 6 quarts is the magic number for a full fill with a 25 row oil cooler.
