That sounds about right -- also, don't forget to pick up a bottle of limited slip additive.

Most of the builders and gear manufacturers say to break it in then change the oil after 1500 miles - after that every 50 unless you beat on it, race a lot etc.

50K is what the manuel says. It specifies dino oil too FWIW. Additive if no torsen carrier... IIRC you will have some left over with 2qts.
