I don't think it holds more oil, I know it does. I have the Integra service manual right here in front of me: 4.8 quarts for engine overhaul, 4.0 quarts for oil change including filter, 3.7 quarts for oil change without filter. I would assume that after an engine rebuild, there is no oil in any of the passages that are normally full of oil during an oil change. I am just saying that it should hold more and it is strange that it isn't.
