Brake fluid recommendations? Dot 3 VS dot 5

Well that sounds like the long and short of it, I knew I came to the right place… thank you for the education… sounds like I need to make a decision on a fluid and move forward…

My plan was to bench bleed the master cylinder, double check ALL of the brake lines and hardware and then double check again, then mount the master cylinder and starting at the passenger side rear bleeder while my oldest pumps the foot brake for me and top off as needed as we go… driver side rear, passenger side front then driver side front… does that sound like a fair plan? Anything I’m overlooking or missing? (The car is up on jacks, no wheels or tires mounted)
