    well this is a basic question,

    how much brake fluid is in the complete brake system on a early commodore???

    i assume the vb-vl all have the same pipes etc and contain the same volume

    about 1 litre .... so if you buy 2 500ml bottles you should be sweet. If you are starting off empty you might want an extra bottle cos you will use a bit more to bleed the system.
