Anyway, I am just changing front rotors (good old NAPA replacements), hawk HPS pads, and installing goodrich brakelines with the AN fittines, and speedbleeders. Nothing too fancy, but I just like to wrench on things. I have never done this on this car before so if you have any tips for me let me know. I have worked on a lot of cars in the past, but I haven't messed with the brakes on this one before...they are still stock rotors and pads.

Pretty much just a chevy brake job, make sure the thread is correct on the speed bleeders, there a many different ones sold, would not want to end up with a stripped caliper bleeder. Don't over tighten the bleeder. When you loosen the bleeder, don't over do it or you will suck air back past the threads when you let off, I have seen this. I prefer pressure or vac bleed, where I can see the bleeder.
Make sure your caliper bolts are the right torque spec & put new med. loctite if you are not replacing. Clean old stuff off. Go with a good high temp fluid, there are many. 500 f dry is my personal min. I have used the napa's, they are fine.
