01 Gts Oil Capacity?

Does any one know the oil capacity of a stock 01 gts? Curious if it is more than my 97 gts.
Thanks!
Chris

Then it's more capacity than my 97. The service manual for the 97 gts says 7.5 qts total (7.0 qts in pan + .5 qts in the filter.) Does anybody know what year they went to the larger capacity pan on the gts's?

According to the 97 service manual, the gts had only a 7 qt pan, but the rt-10 had the 10 quart pan. Why they would put a smaller pan on the the gts (in 97) is beyond me......

Frankly, you have to be very careful believing the service manuals. That note is most likely a holdover from the '96 manual, when the RT still had the Gen1 10 qt motor and the GTS had the lower sump capacity Gen2 motor.
