How much should I pay for synthetic ATF?

I'm going to drop the pan and flush my system and put in a synthetic, either Mobil 1 or Amsoil. The cheapest prices I found were:

$6/quart for Mobil 1 at Autobarn
and
$7.70/quart for Amsoil at their website

Is Amsoil worth the extra $1.70/quart?
Is $6/quart a good price on Mobil?

Also, will a case of 12 quarts suffice for a flush? Thanks

A) Probably.

B) It's typical.

C) I've seen trannies take up to 2 cases, it depends on the current condition of the fluid. 12 quarts *should* be sufficient.

Here is what you should do. Contact fellow .orger, his name is talkinghorse. He is a certifired Amsoil seller and he can give you discount on any Amsoil products. I've bought motor oil and ATF from him in the past and his shipping was lightning fast. Ordered and paid on Sunday and the stuffs arrived on Wednesday. He can sell you a case (12 quarts) of ATF for $67.20 ($5.60 per quart) plus shipping.
