quick brake caliper question
On a C3 (72), I know there are 2 bleeder screws on each rear caliper.
My question is how many are on the front ? One or two?

Thanks, I thought that was the case, but sometimes I tend to second guess myself. I am trying to get by with as little physical work as possible due to the 100 plus temps here today. Going to pressure bleed the brakes tonight and I have the car on the lift with the rear wheels removed. Looks like I can bleed the fronts with the wheels on.
I appreciate the info.

I am also going to bleed the rear wheels this friday on my 1980. MY order from summit for the speed bleeders should be in today. I have heard good things about them and hopefully it will go a little faster then the vacuum pump.

Thanks for the tip, I will have alot of fluid on hand. Bleeding has always been a problem for me and Decided to go with speed bleeders when ever I have to bleed the brakes now on any of my other cars. Last year I re did the brakes on my 1970 Buick Electra with my vacuum pump and it worked okay, but the I was still expecting to have a fimer brake pedal. Once the vette is done I will order bleeders for the buick and re do it.
