So we just putting 7 quarts of oil in my block and the stock dip stick just got wet at the tip. Anybody put this oil pan on their block? Any info would greatly be appreciated. Aloha[emoji1686]

I suggest posting photos and taking measurements. There are several members of this site that have an oil pan they could compare your findings to.

The dip stick confirms proper oil level, it doesn't measure quantity.  Your 7 quart oil pan holds more than 7 quarts.  Keep adding oil until the level is correct.  Edit - unless you also installed an extended oil pickup tube with the bigger pan.

Yes the pan came with an extended oil pick up

Moroso has instructions for some of their big sellers.  The Chevy small block is one, I pasted a link below from their web site.  The link says "unipan" so it's probably universal.  They describe how to set the dip stick level if the pan comes with its own dip stick port. 

Cylinder lubrication comes from oil being flung from the crankshaft after it passes through the bearings, so if you have a deep sump pickup you're probably fine.  But you're outside of the factory settings so you kind of have to rely on the aftermarket supplier to make sure it's right.

I know your question was for people who have used that pan but I doubt that anyone on here has.  Someone on hybridz.org might have, but even there the big oil pans are rare.  Good luck.
