Jim, did you bench bleed the master cylinders before you installed
them.  If so you are half way home.  To bleed the sytem have someone sit
in the car and pump the respective pedal three or four times and hold it
to the floor on the last pump.  Then release the nipple at the slave or
wheel cylinder.  Repeat this process until all evidence of air is gone
from the fluid exiting the nipple.  For the brakes begin bleeding the
system at the wheel furthest from the master cylinder, left rear, and
work to the wheel closest to the master cylinder, left front.
