    I just did this, I asked autozone how much I needed, I believe it was 4 qts.

    BE SURE TO CHECK IT AFTER, Autozone is not reliable but in this case they were right...dont over-fill either

    ALSO, be sure to lube up the pan bolts well, even if they aren't rusty, I snapped two bolts and spent 2 hrs drilling and tapping them out

      Why would you lube the pan bolts? having fluid in the bolt holes will alter the torque of the bolt and alter the depth the bolt is able to go.
