    bleeder valves on 84

    I just watch a video of a C3 and the mechanic showed the rear of the C3 had two brakes bleeders per caliber. On my 84 I only see one . Is that correct or should the C4 also have two brake bleeders per caliber?

    C3 calipers, both front and rear, are 4 piston, fixed calipers. There are 2 pistons on each side of the caliper. The rear calipers only do have bleeder valves on both sides.

    1984 Corvette brake calipers are single piston style floating calipers, both front and rear. For a single piston caliper, there is absolutely no need for anything more than 1 bleeder valve per caliper and that's exactly what your car should have.
