A pint for a minimal bleed--you should do the clutch hydraulics too, since the fluids cohabitate (maybe not for a BN6)--but having a quart may come in handy. Note if it's Dot3 or 4 it's (sometimes) recommended to throw the remainder away once the bottle's been opened.

How much should you buy?
Get a quart the amount required is dependent on how much air is in the system and how long it takes you to get it out
