Ok - does anyone have any information as to a significant difference between the single bleeder and dual bleed rear brake caliper OTHER than one has two bleeders? I have always considered them interchangeable and PET does not list a seperate part number for rears from '70 thru '76. Fire away!!!!

Well, the dual bleeder is easier to bleed since you can open both and get all the air out.

They are interchangeable as a unit. There are internal differences though. Basically, it does make them easier to bleed. Nothing more significant than that.
