i just installed wilwood 4 wheel brakes on my camaro,the calipers have 4 bleeder screws on each one ...this may sound dumb,but do i need to bleed all 4 and is there an order to do this????16 bleeder screws sounds like a good way to get air in the system..lol...thanks,denny

I`m pretty sure that they have multiple bleeders so the caliper could be mounted in different positions. Just use the bleeders on the top, pointing upwards.

It is because they are four piston calipers. You must bleed all four pistons per caliper. That is how my Strange are, and also Aerospace too.
