If it were mine I would put nine quarts in and mark the dipstick.

Then start the engine let it run for a minute and shut it down.

Wait about 15 minutes and check the dipstick.

Add oil to bring it up to the full mark. This will be the oil needed for the filter and oil lines.

Note how many quarts it took for future oil change.
