Good find. Thanks for sharing.

No, of course you are not going to get the full 8qt to drain from the engine. The filter itself, depending on its size, will have at least .25 qt. then there's oil in the galleys, passages, etc. etc. that will not drain out or will take forever to flow out if you wait. Don't even sweat that. Warm up, shut down, check your oil level to make sure it is good and you are golden. Magnet or not, it is always a good idea to change the oil after running a fresh engine a few hundred miles.
