Need help with my brakes

Ok I have an 87 se swapped the brakes to dual. But now my brakes dont hold any pressure. Bled the the brake front and rear. And still the pedal feels like it has no pressure. Anyone can help? Searched couldnt find anything. And also my secondaries not working around 3800 rpms, any idea? thanks.

matter a fact make sure the vacuum source from the intake to the booster is hooked up including the check valve

Do you bleed the brake master cylinder alone???? and then the brake calipers??? Also you start bleeding the brakes with the one far away from the master cylinder? What are the condition of you rubber brake hoses. Old hoses fail inside and make the system to be spongy and dont brake good.

the hesitation maybe due to not clean connections to the fuel injectors.
