I used almost exactly 4 qts when I changed my fluid and filter. I didn't go to synthetic since I heard people talking about it adversely affecting the clutch discs.
I've been happy with the standard Dexron III 'm using so far. It has a good, hard shift to second. I may change to a pan with a plug pretty soon, though. Right now I suck almost all of it out with a hose and THEN drop the pan. Much cleaner, but I can see that it's still going to get old quickly...
