I have brakes.

The problem turned out to be the Wilwood pressure valve (the latest problem). The adapters included with the valve were too long. If you threaded them in there all the way it would crush the reed valve inside the body of the valve. I ordered a new one, and the new one was a slightly different design. The valve is recessed further to avoid contact with the adapters. So I had no fluid getting through the crushed valve. New valve, quick bleed job and they work great, I locked em up several times in the neighborhood! I may add a combo valve back in for safety reasons when I install the wilwood calipers and drilled/slotted rotors later this winter. Thanks to everyone for helping me keep my sanity through the longest brake project of my life, and thanks to Travis at Steel Concepts for the help and nice product.

Glad to hear it! I knew something had to be physically wrong, never thought it would be the Wilwood piece though.
