You'll need I believe it is 16 quarts, you will have to drop the pan, drain there, and remove the filter.then there is a rubber access plug on the bottom of the bell housung, remove that and spin the converter till you can access the drain plug there, it is fine thread so be careful. drain the converter, best to have something else to do while this is going on, it will take a while. And yes this is the proper way to do a fluid exhange on a ford. once drained, reinstall a new filter, reuse the old gasket, it has a metal core, reinstall the converter drain plug and the access plug. If I remember right I was able to pour ten quarts in before it started backing up the funnel. Then start the vehicle and let it suck that fluid in, it may take a few minutes depending on weather, angle of car and such, it is best to have the car up on four jack stands, easier to get to the tranny and important for the next steps. Add maybe 3 more quarts, let it suck that in. Then with the vehicle running and your foot on the brake/ebrake on, shift a few times between reverse and drive until the delay starts to go away, and then add the rest of the fluid according to the stick. and run through the gears again until the delay is gone. Check fluid once on the ground and repeat gear sequence. it should be good to go, check fluid as needed.
