Here ya go:
How to Reset the CHANGE ENGINE OIL Message
The GM Oil Life System
 calculates when to change
your engine oil and filter based on vehicle use. Anytime
your oil is changed, reset the system so it can calculate
when the next oil change is required. If a situation
occurs where you change your oil prior to a CHANGE
ENGINE OIL message being turned on, reset
the system.
To reset the CHANGE ENGINE OIL message do
the following:
1. Turn the ignition key to RUN with the engine off.
2. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal three
times within five seconds.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL message flashes for
five seconds, the system is reset.


If you go to www.mygmlink.com, you can register your vehicle and view the owner's / service manual online.

I am going to assume you have a 4.9 or a 5.3 v8. If so they should take 5 qts.
