My 5.3 was like that, but the 6.0 has been lower since I installed it.

Oil level is good right? I know after 3000 miles of my heavy foot+Radix. I am usually down a qt or so.

I've seen lots of F-body people on tech swear that they installed the o-ring correctly and it is cut when they go in to replace it.
