Hey guys I just got new Stainless steel braided lines, rotors, etc.. for my stealth which I am in the middle of an engine rebuild. I wanted to flush out the brake system and put Dot 4 into it, or at least flush it and put Dot3. Any suggestions as to put Dot 4 or Dot 3? Also, any suggestions or cautions when I flush out the system? Any help would be welcome, thanks.

I've heard good things about Motul RBF 600 and ATE Super Blue, stick with a DOT 4.
3sx (http://www.3sx.com/store/comersus_listCategoriesAndProducts.asp?idCategory= 2) has speed bleeders which make it much simpler to bleed the brakes on your own, without the help of a partner. Other than that, it's pretty much just like bleeding any other car.

another helpful hint: when bleeding each brake, put about 1 foot of clear rubber tubing over the nipple and going down into a bucket. it will help keep the messy brake fluid off your hands.
