Engine Oil Level too high?

Well, it could be. If I recall correctly, the manual calls for 6 quarts with a filter.
I do have a spin-on filter. I'm not sure that it holds an entire quart, but it is close.
I didn't have the original dip stick, so when I first filled it with oil I made marks on the dipstick at 4, 5 and 6 quarts.

I could try running it at the 5 quart level.

Thanks all.
