The car is almost ready to be put on the road and I will post more build photos later this weekend.

Question: Motive Power Bleeders, would you order? The 00100 http://www.jegs.com/i/Motive+Products/715/00100/10002/-1 or 0109 http://www.jegs.com/i/Motive+Products/715/0109/10002/-1 . I think both are the same except the second is a little nicer. Also, AN Hose End Swivel Fitting. Does anyone know what brand Unique uses if I ordered the parts from Unique? Russell or some other brand? I need to order a 90 deg return at the oil filter and was trying to get everything at once.

Thanks and Happy New Year to everyone. :BEER:

If you're inclined to the power bleeder, by all means go for it. There is no right or wrong here, just preferences. MityVac bleeders work very well too (after teflon-taping bleeder screws) and are less costly, but use what you prefer.

As to -AN fittings, well....they're made to a standard, and as such you're not gonna find much difference between them. Other than color, anyway,and probably not enough there to discern one make versus another.

Happy New Year back at ya, and enjoy this one 'cause you're gonna be driving!

I use speed bleeders and like them very much. Just loosen one valve and connect a hose into catch can. Then pump the brakes until clear fluid comes. Repeat for all corners.

Haven't used one yet, but it sure seems like it's the way to go.
