<VV> 66 Monza 110 HP oil capacity

[J R Read_HML]

4.5 quarts on a change.  Stay away from the filters with the U shaped gasket 
on the outer edge.  Use the WIX, NAPA (made by WIX), or Clark's filters.

Synthetic is best so long as this engine does not use or leak oil 
excessively.  Then it would get expensive.

Order the 65 Chassis manual and 66 supplement.
