I know this would be a pain in the south end -- but I'd go one step further. Start at the master cylinder ... crack the line and keep moving to the rear. Messy? yes ... but that may be the only way to nail down where the problem is. Case in point ... had a friend of mine with a 69' Camaro -- pulled the rear end to install a 12 bolt and left the brake line open. To make a long story short -- mud dobbers had built a "nest" in the open line ... didn't notice it and line was plugged ... Craig
