2. Isn't that a Ford 4.6 DOHC? Even boosted, that's nowhere near 1300hp. No way, no how.

I hit 'yes,' before I realized he's talking wheel hp. I think you could do 370 hp at the flywheel, n/a, but it would take a lot of work and money. But not wheel hp. So I guess my answer is 'no.'

Absolutely - that's ridiculous.

You need to get your foot off the clutch. Either it's up, or it's down. Not inbetween. Use the gas if you're stalling or lugging it, but not the clutch.

Maybe what he's saying is ambiguous, then. I interpret it as 3.75 when he says "it is about 3/4 after 1000 miles."

I agree if it's 1/4 qt in 1000 miles, it's not good, but it's not something that...

I don't think he ever said that. He said his oil was "3/4 full." He didn't say anything about the stick.

I could be wrong, but I interpret that as 3/4 = 3.75 Qt. full. (or so).

What are you not getting here?

He said 3/4 full in 1000 miles. That's 1/4 down. As in 1.25 quarts lost in 1000 miles. That's crazy, and I'll be keeping an eye on mine.

1 quart per 1000 miles...
