Mine's my second, with the same set-up, but the first was really more like a go-kart on steroids. (check my signature)Lol, I had a 1980 D100 with a slant 6 and 4 spd manual, it was my first truck.
I hate to admit it but I have actually run mine almost 5 quarts low. They only hold 6.I had one in a 1973 Dodge van. As long as you changed the oil, you could not kill those engines, it had about 185,000 miles when I gave it to my brother. Plus it was so easy to work on.
My sister had one in a 4 door Dodge whatever model of car, and she never checked the oil, about 3.5 qts later it still ran. But she eventually killed it, the slant 6 needed rings and the car was not worth fixing. But I did pull the starter, alternator, and what ever else I could for my van. I think it was one of the best 6 cylinder engines.
That's AWESOME, and not the first time I've heard something similar to that, either!
You ROCK! Here's a couple of links that prove you are not alone.
