Default fluid capacity

I tried looking at other posts but could not find an answer. Can you tell me how much tranny fluid goes in for just a filter change. I am not doing a complete flush. Does anyone know of the best recommended type to put in. I was thinking Royal Purple. Thanks

545RFE, Both filters and I would have 6 quarts of ATF+4 (Castrol, Valvoline or ?) on hand.

If you are not doing a total flush why worry about expensive ATF. I would just get a good quality ATF and shorten my change cycles. Lets face it most ATF out there is better than MOPAR'S ATF.
