Oil in 2uz-fe

My Dad's 2005 Toyota Tundra is at 140000 miles and needs an oil change.

He last went to a speedy change shop and on cold mornings (below 0 F) he says he can hear knocking

I plan to change the oil to synthetic (german castrol 0 30) and am wondering how much to put in.

In the 7m I know you go to the full line then put a quart in, I was wondering if anyone knows the maximum amount of oil the engine will hold without any chance of hitting the crank? Just fill it up to toyota's spec?

Car has been his baby, and maintained well, he says he'll get a new car at 400000 miles :)
