How many ATF quarts...?

Hello all,

It seems like I could crank the engine forever and would never get a chance to line up the torque converter drain plug with the opening hole properly; so I guess I would have to drain the pan & refill more often then. Approximately how many quarts would it need to prepare to do this ?

Alternately, I've heard about turning the engine via the crankshaft but from what I saw, there's no way I could fit a ratchet and a socket in there as the fan is in the way. What am I missing here ?

Any tips are greatly appreciated!
Frank.
