AT pan bolts and amount of fluid

For those of you who have dropped the pan and changed your AFT fluid, did you buy new bolts for the pan, or use the old ones?? Has anyone tried using a thread sealing on old bolts?? How much fluid do I need to buy? Thanks.

I spent the $.80 per bolt X 21 bolts (the dealer retail is a buck per bolt I think), they have a sealant built onto them. I figured it was a small investment in the whole procedure since this tranny's got to last me for a number of years. I added a B&M tranny cooler when I did the flush and pan clean about 2 months ago so I had to add about 4 or 5 quarts of Amsoil ATF after draining if I remember correctly. I actually overfilled and had to drain some out. There's another thread on the subject (a sticky).
