Two ways to go at it. If yo've got the stuff in the quart bottle that let's you see how much you've poured in by looking at how much you have left, you can put in the three pints and be okay as long as you're sure you've got at least that three pints in there.
In my experience (driven by curiosity and no more scientific than pokin' my finger in one try and some cardboard in aother), the three pints doesn't bring the level up even to the top of the pan. By rights, that would make sense. The lower edge of the fill hole is in the casting above the top of the pan. Why would you fill a pan so full that it would overflow if you ever went to remove it?
From my experimentation, you could probably sneak a whole two quarts into each side and never give it another thought. If, after that, you wanted to fill it on up to the level of the fill hole, it wouldn't hurt anything, but I'd run it at the recommended level for a while first, just to get some oil into the gasket for long enough to make sure it's swelled shut, and maybe prevent a minor leak at the top of the pan later.
