Smitty says:  Steve I have been lurking on your subject and I don't know
for sure what has/has not been said.  You are right that the M cyl can be
bench (actually pre) bled in the car.  As long as you keep plenty of
fluid in it and route the outlet lines right back into the reservoir. 
One thing to keep in mind though.  Long deep strokes gg are not effective
in purging air.  Anything over an inch of stroke is apt to do more harm
than good.
