Okay I'm switching today to the setup in the OP. Do I need to run more than 6 quarts because of the bigger filter? I would assume that I need to run like 6.25 or 6.5, but don't want to do anything until I am absolutely sure.

Purolator: Stock L25195 / Extra capacity L40107

Mann: Stock W930/20 / Extra capacity W950/7

Wix: Stock 51068 / Extra capacity 51773 (6.982"lg) or 51515 (5.18"lg)

Diesel oil fine in gas engines. Reverse may not be true.

Yep. All Rotella is diesel oil. The only difference is the heavier weight and the higher zddp content. The zddp content is exactly why its good for our engines because of the old school flat tappet cams.
