Good afternoon...So you would use about one quart in 500 miles between oil changes...does not seem excessive to me. With our 31 Tudor we find that it will toss out 1/4 quart or so if we fill it to the top mark on the dip stick. If we fill it to about 1/4 inch below the top mark, it uses much less as it is not tossing it out of the rear main...other opinions/experiences will follow...
