How many quarts of oil does a 12 valve Cummins hold?
Oh, to answer the OP, 11 qts. The system holds 12 but the IP never drains and it holds a qt. If you remove the oil plug and look at the bung you will see that it is drilled to allow all the oil to drain from the pan. That is why you need to cross drill the Fumoto type drain valves.

Synthetic oils are more expensive but will lubricate the components better and longer since they are specially formulated with additives which take longer to break down. That is generally why synthetics are a better choice for engines which see heavy duty usage such as most diesel trucks.
