Subject: [Spridgets] Brake conversion problem

I have converted my 62 sprite to disk brakes up front. I also had a 3/4 bore
master cyl. rebored/rebuilt and I put it in. I cannot get the system to
bleed all the air off entirely. I get firm pedal after 3-4 strokes, but it
won't hold. I have done each wheel cyl. 3-4 times.

Is there a trick to doing the disk brakes? I thought I read somewhere that
they were difficult. Did I install them wrong? The bleeders are at
bottom...any ideas, help, resources?
