You will need anywhere from 12-16 quarts or to be safe, 4gals. Amsoil is a good brand. I just bought 4gals of ATF fuid for a full flush, and I don't even want to admit what I paid for the fluid.

I think for just the filter change out and what fluid is in the pan the manual calls for 5 quarts.
I have used Mobil 1 ATF with good results before.

You'll only need 12-16 quarts if you empty the converter and pull the trans apart (complete drain). Good luck!
