Jimbo,

Is it possible that you don't have the front brakes adjusted tight enough and when you try to bleed all of your pedal stroke is used in expanding the wheel cylinder?

One way around this is to adjust your brakes till the shoes are all the way out and tight against the drum. Then bleed the lines. Then adjust brakes.

This worked for me.

If this doesn't work you can get a residual valve to put in line from Summit Racing.

I think you should be able to get good brakes without any additional valve.

Let me know if I can be of any help.

Ken
