Man, put about 8 in it and check it!!. I know the converter holds 1.5 usually and it took me about 10 to get one full I installed.

If all you did is pull the pan and changed the filter, you will need 5 quarts. If the whole thing was drained, including the converter, it will hold 11. That would be in a case such as a rebuild, etc.
