Chase Bays brake booster install + bleeding

Installed the chase bays brake lines, clutch line, brake booster eliminator, and as well as a new oem clutch slave and oem clutch master.

I'm having issues bleeding the system as my clutch pedal and brake pedal hit the floor instantly. When the i bleed the rear barely any fluid comes out but that may be related to the prop-valve adjustment (side note how do i know to properly adjust that? ) The front calipers and clutch line have fluid but a lot of bubbles come out. I vacum bled the front left and clutch lines and went through about 1qt of fluid and still the same result.

The only thing I can think of is I havn't bench bled the master cylinder. Could that really be the issue? Any other advice? I'll be trying again in a few days lol.

Side note: Alex Rodriguez ABS delete kit for sale! lol

You may have to bench bleed the master cylinders. If they are dry inside they won't pump any fluid through. Using some sort of vacuum bleeder can help too to get fluid moving through the system.
