Default Gearing up for SS install. Couple questions.

The Goodridge G-Stop SS kit is in the mail, so I'm reading about doing the swap of OEM brake lines to stainless steel.
I've checked out a couple of threads here which are helpful.
Brake Bleeding by AK370z

and This SS install thread.

I wish the SS install still had photos up but I haven't had luck finding another thread of the install w/ pics.

My question is this...I have the Motive Power Bleeder in the mail as well. While I'm replacing the lines....should I have the power bleeder connected? Or not connect the bleeder until I'm ready to start the bleeding process?

Question 2: I've heard of people 'stopping the fluid leak' while replacing the lines to prevent the whole system (specifically ABS) from losing all fluid. Is there a good way to do this?

I'll be replacing the fluid with motul 600...which I'll do after I install the lines.

Anything else I'm missing? (I'm aware of the inner and outer bleeding nipples on the calipers.) Other threads / videos to look at?
