OK all you smarties. I need help. '47 WDX. I replaced the master cylinder with the 1 ton Chevy dual bench bled. No leaks (course with low pressure it is hard to tell). Cannot get any pedal. Fluid coming out of wheel cyls is clear. Have new flex lines on order and will pick up this afternoon. Have verified shoe adjustments on all four corners with .010 clearance on shoes. Shoes are new. Have not turned drums but that is next step. Brake lines have been replaced sometime in the past and routing to the rear end is non-stock as it goes over the rear cross member and has some 'spare' going over to the flex line. Anybody tried those checkvalve style bleeders? How well do they work? Any other ideas? If this finally works I'll see if I can get Joe to post some pix of the bracket and location of the MC. Thanks.
