      Tobin, thanks for the response! The vette m/c is a 1" so I guess I will stick with that style.

      My brakes were almost non-existant for the first 3/4 of the pedal travel, and then they would get rock hard for the last 1/4. I have only moved the car in the driveway, and if I pumped the brakes I could get some good stopping force, but never on the 1st pump.

      I know that part of my problem was that my e-brake was not adjusted correctly, which I believe that I have corrected now.

      I also had the old rubber "jumper" line that connected the brakes from the body to the rear axle that I had never replaced, so I am going to replace that too while I am at it.

      If this doesnt work then I am baffled, I know my bleeders are all in the right spots, the pushrod for the pedal is in the upper hole, all of the other lines are new and tight, I am running out of things that could be wrong.

      At least I know that I am not using the wrong style of master cylinder, that takes one of the possible root causes out of the equation.
