Quick and Easy: Oil Capacity on BP/BPT

I don't have a manual for the new engine. I'm running the BPT now. Just wanted to know how much oil to put in. I just drained what looks like a lot more than the old 1.6 SOHC used to have which was I believe 3.5 quarts or somewhere around there. The BP and the BPT should have the same capacities so this should be an easy answer. Thanks for the help all.

cool, I put 4 in. That's what I figured. I think it just looked like more coming out than the old engine, because the old engine burned a LOT. :D
