How much coolant?

Hello guys, I will be doing H/C this weekend and I will be draining my coolant.. My car has always had the green stuff not the dex cool so I am sticking with the green one. I bought some Preston coolant that has to be diluted. I was wondering how much gallons or what not, does the whole coolant system hold?

I tried the Owners manual but doesn't show lol.. Thx.

if its not 50/50, just fill it and the rest of it with water. i would get the dex cool orange stuff. and flush the old stuff out no matter what you do!!!

as long as you mix any decent antifreeze with distilled water 50/50 you should be fine if you do a lot of racing or something or had problems with your car overheating you could probably add some water wetter or similiar product and or less antifreeze
