Stoptech BBK - how much fluid?

How much brake fluid will I require to bleed a new ST60/ST40 kit once installed? After that if I'm using SRF and flushing once a year how much fluid does a flush take?

Thanks in advance

You should be fine with 1 liter, but I recommend picking up a liter and a half of cheap BMW fluid when performing the initial installation. This gives you plenty of fresh fluid to flush the lines completely if you get air in the system. Once you are happy with the pedal firmness, suck the BMW fluid out of the reservoir and replace with the SRF. The new BMW fluid is yellow (at least the DOT 4 stuff I got) and the SRF is clear. This is helpful to see when the SRF has replaced the BMW fluid.
