Hey Guys, What I have is a 1975 DT400. What I've done is completely tore it apart and am turning it into a cheap ass rat bike. I've lowered the front forks three inches and I can't find the oil capacity for the forks anywhere. Would there be any change in the capacity since I added a three inch spacer inside the forks. Here is a link for the process of lowering the forks I used. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Stock was 175cc of 10w-30 oil. You might want to take 15cc off of that or something.
