[Mgs] Speed Bleeders

[Robert's New iPad]

   Perhaps there is, or one can be extrapolated from their listing for different cars, in which they say that all metric-thread SBs are SAE wrench size, because metric stock is more expensive.
   To continue research, we must go to McMaster-Carr and see if their hex stock costs more in the larger sizes, and how much.
