theyre like $13 a pair. totally worth it. Russel makes them, so you can get em at autozone or whatever.
Front- SB8100 M8 X 1.0 1.28" (35.54mm)
Rear- SB7100 M7 X 1.0 1.38" (35.15mm)

oh, and i didnt bench bleed my master either. just pour and pump. i would keep going with a caliper until you run a whole master full of fluid through it with no air bubbles. sometimes it'll take like 10 pumps of nice solid fluid, before a bubble will appear.

Autozone sells three kinds, only one is metric and it sure as hell doesnt fit. Summit racing does sell the Russell ones. Has the same part number for front and rear. They come in pairs and are about 10 dollars.

The SB8100 and SB1700 i could not manage to cross reference with anything.
