The Aviaid(and Armondo) is a 9 qt. Pan. + 1/2 qt for the filter.
The Aviaid has ridges in it. Oil temp bung is lower. tank splice is further back. Your's looks a bit different? Not Aviaid.
I wouldn't put it past Gary to have had someone make up copies.
Why would he have a unique dipstick though? No one else does?
Fill the filter with oil and let it sit while you fill the pan. Put 8 qts in and check the stick.
Put the filter on and let it run a minute or so. Let it sit 5 minutes. Come back and check the stick. fill it till the stick says full.
Note how much oil it took.
