I'm upgrading my breaks, cross drilled/slotted rotors, steel braided lines, black caliper paint and new pads.

I bought the front wheel berring seals(when repacking berrings) as well.

I'm not to sure on how much the break fluid to buy for reflushing, I bought a 32oz. big bottle of Valvoline SynPower break fluid, is that enough?

That should be enough. Throw away any extra left over. Only use brake fluid from a new unopened can.

I found this interesting comparison chart.
