Oh, man, I think gio has enough to worry about, now with this new concern about fish, he's going to need a prescription, OTC melatonin isn't going to cut it.

Ok, let’s wait till the swap is done, a few tests stops and maybe an update in a month or six.

Hello All,

Finally got everything installed.

One concern I was hoping you would help me out with.

The bleeder valves weep or leak after a drive or when the caliper gets hot.

Are they defective calipers or bleeder valves?

What are the torque specs? I tighten them a little bit when they are hot to try to eliminate the leaking, but I do not want to over tighten them and do any damage.
