Transmission Fluid

I am planning on doing a transmission filter change tomorrow and was going to drain the torque converter while under there. Then make the switch to synthetic. Im not sure how much fluid to buy and what the capacities are for the pan and the TC.
2000 F250 5.4 with a 4R100?
Anyone know?

Good idea to run synthetic. I use Mobil 1 and it runs 20 degrees cooler.

Which Mobil 1 blend are you using?

I am currently converting all of my fluids over to synthetic.

I just replaced my 4R100 tranny pan with a Mag Hytec and am running Mobile 1 ATF

I used about 15 quarts

If you can't find it at Autozone or Checkers, then check the yellow pages for a oil jobber. You are buying roughly 4 gallons so they usually will give you a price break.
