Prolly 4. The trans will take aboot 10-11 quarts when completely empty, and fluid changes will normally require around 4 qts...just depends on if it were low to start with.

Dextron II or III is fine...

Don't over torque the pan bolts, it will squish the gasket out, run it for a bit and re torque...I believe that it is 8 ftp. Also take a straight edge to the pan gasket area and make sure there is no dips.
