Brake pedal getting harder after driving for period of time
I recently converted my.monye Carlo SS to manual brakes. I have been struggling with it ever since. Right now the pedal feels really really nice but the cars stopping is lackluster. I've driven it 3 times and every time I've driven it after a few miles I got to hit the brakes and notice the pedal feel is harder than at the beginning of the drive. The car has a big block and runs at a decent operating temp but there is a lot of underhood heat even with my cowl hood. Someone told me the pedal getting harder is due to air in the system. I have bled it several times and to be honest I hope he is right and that there is hope for it yet. I'd really appreciate any input or help. The car has been parked for almost 13 years and I'd really like to drive it again. Thanks in advance!
