depends on what kind of exchange you are doing. are you doing a drain and refill or removing the line from the return line to flush it out? drain and refill typically netted me about 4.5 quarts on average and a little more when i dropped the pan. with the return method, it depends how many times it takes before the fluid coming out looks new. i think most said they used 10 quarts in 2 quart intervals. i use mobil 1 atf but whatever you get, just make sure its mercon/dexron III approved.
