Considering N spinless Fermions in a random potential, we study how a short range pairwise interaction delocalizes the N-body states in the basis of the one-particle Slater determinants, and the spectral rigidity of the N-body spectrum. The maximum number gN of consecutive levels exhibiting the universal Wigner-Dyson rigidity (the Thouless number) is given as a function of the strength U of the interaction for the bulk of the spectrum. In the dilute limit, one finds two thresholds Uc1 and Uc2. When $U
