UA Domestic to SQ Intl. Connection at LAX

Hi all,

I'm just wondering if anyone could provide some advice on connecting in LAX. It will be my first time connecting at LAX and I'm afraid my connection time is short as it is only an hour and 37 minutes. I'll be arriving from San Jose on UA 6497 (terminal 8) and connecting to SQ 27 (Bradely terminal) to Taipei. I think T8 is probably the farthest from Bradley.

Here are my questions regarding the tight connection:

1. What's the fastest way to get from terminal 8 to Bradley? Should I take a taxi, walk/run, or take the free shuttle? Is the shuttle on arrivals or departure level?

2. I'm on a UA Business class award ticket and will have checked bags. Will I be issued a boarding pass at SJC? If so do I still need to check in with SQ at LAX?

3. What's the security wait times like at Bradley around 10PM? Is there a priority line for SQ Raffles passengers. I hear it's often like a zoo there.

Thanks for everyone's help in advance.
