Anyone using them? Pros, cons? If you changed over, what size did you get?

They're basically one way check valves that replace the normal bleed valves on your brakes. Allows you to just open the valve, connect a oil collection bag and pump the brakes to bleed the system. No need to have a buddy close the valve. The one way nature is supposed to keep air from getting back into the system when you release pressure.Just curious as to what a speed bleeder is?

Are those the correct ones for our cars? Front and rear? I take it you would need two sets?I use these: https://www.stahlbus-us.com/bleedin...-m10x10x14mm-s-steel-with-black-dust-cap.html
They are the best product of their type on the planet. They're made of steel, they have a spring-loaded valve and o-ring seal so air can't get in when you lift the brake pedal. I started using them in 2014 and it was a revelation. They give you a very clean bleed (rock-hard pedal) every time with no leaks or mess.
Yes, the short M10x1.0 S 14mm bleeders are the correct ones for the Brembo's on a GT350, and yes, it takes two sets - there are two bleeders on each of the four calipers.Are those the correct ones for our cars? Front and rear? I take it you would need two sets?
Maybe there's a reason to use the speed bleeders I don't understand, but I'd take a Motive power bleeder given the choice.

In case anyone is in a hurry, be sure to check, as iirc Ford changed the adapter somewhere mid-run on the GT350.
