Sorry for the blather, it's early and I haven't had enough coffee. The
speedbleeders go on the caliper and slave cylinder. I'm going to order some,
so I'll go and measure them--they're probably 1/4 28. I have them on my
Norton and my MV Agusta. For some stupid reason I never thought to put them
on Peyote, but they're wonderful. Simple, obvious, and long overdue.

www.speedbleeders.com The ones for Tiltons or wilwood superlights fit
Girlings. The tilton small master cylinders are diecast girlings, basically.
All the parts except the outlet fitting (deep AN-3) are interchangeable.

Bruce Wentzel sells them. He'd know.
Not on FOT list (he's a Corvette guy). I got mine from him 2-3 years ago.
Bruce is at greendot1@comcast.net.
Or you can get them from Solo Performance Specialties --
www.soloperformance.com -- tell him (Dave Whitworth) what your car is and he
supplies the part.
