Speed Bleeder

I'm looking to get some speed bleeders for the Coupe. Anyone know where I can find them (online, or auto parts store) and what size I would need?

These speedbleeders are pretty inconsistent. They worked pretty good with my OE floating calipers and then with my Wilwood BBK. Did not work at all with my now Stoptech BBK. A proper 2 man bleed is still the best way to go. Good luck with them.

I agree. I do not endorse their use on Wilwood kits. I used to carry them but they are just not really "all that". And I might add that bleeding on this platform can be a bit of a problem you won't overcome with them. Often due to the angle of the caliper air can be trapped in the upper piston as the bleed passage is now over center. I'd always suggest gravity/manual bleeding in the most upright manner as possible.

I picked up some Russell speed bleeders from Summit Racing. Part #639560 and #639570. Once I get my car back I'll see how they work.
