I have used the Russell bleeders from Jegs.com for about $10/pair. I race a
356 Porsche which uses 2 per caliper. That is about $40 for the car. They
work great. I recommend this product highly. I'm at the end of my third
season (~10 race weekends/season) with no failures. However I do keep a
couple of sets on hand for spares, just in case. Not only is it handy to
have this product to aid in a typical 'one man' operation, sometimes its
better (and faster) when you have a product or tool that helps you do your
mainainance without the help of friends and family. I used to have more
brake problems when people "helped" me bleed the brakes.
Go get 'em.
