how much oil does the front sump hold in a 302
I changed the oil in my 93 for the first time only to realize that the front sump's drain plug is rounded (previous owner). I don't have the time to pull it off so I figured I'd leave whatever is in the front sump there. Does anyone know roughly how much oil the front sump holds? Thanks, Keith

Everytime I change my oil, I get anywhere from 1/2 to 1 qt. I don't know if this is normal, but it is what I get. Hope this helps.

Very little, mabey 1/2 qt. If you jack the car up, probably closer to 1/4 qt. Should be ok, but I would get a new plug in asap.
