I would say the easiest way to bleed would be to suspend the caliper with the bleed screw at the bottom, and fit a sized piece of hardwood between the pistons while pumping.

This is not to imply the swap would work properly. Other vehicles I have done have generally used floating calipers with quite different hardware top and bottom. Brakes are used primarily for forward motion braking, and as such the elements of design are assymetrical.
