Service manual says 7.5 quarts with the filter. Is this accurate or do I have to buy more oil?

Use 8 quarts for "early" Gen IIs - don't forget the oil filter takes up some of the oil. See my Viper fluids maintenance chart:

Nice chart!

FYI, Per Chuck Tator:

"Hi Ian,
August 1996 DC sent a correction sheet for the 96 GTS service manual,
page 0-2, to correct the type-O "7.5 qts" to 8.5 qts.
You need one more quart!"
