How Much R-134a AC

Just did a rebuild, and had all my AC lines disconnected. When I refill the freon, how many cans will it take? Oh yeah, I've got a 95 Z-28.

Thanks:

Its not called FREON, that was R12. There is a tag on the radiator support that says exactly how much it takes, I believe it is around 2.1lbs.

nope, mine doesn't have one and neither does my friends. I checked and there is a sticker giving you some warnings about what Freon to use and other BS but no specs on how much Freon to put in. PS. If its not called Freon then whats it called?

About 3 or 4 cans from Autozone or Advance Auto parts.
I used 4 with their cheapo handle with the guage.
Says fill it to 45 psi.

Ok, no big deal what the R-134 is technically called. I just want to know how many cans it should take?

Thanks:
