You are saying that the prop. valve should have very little difference in the travel of the brake pedal, correct?
Sometimes you just get cars that don't want to totally bleed. I've spent hours trying to get some bleed. Just keep at it


(this is assumeing you checked for any leaks)

Re: Drums--->Discs SPELLED OUT

I just did this using the rear disc setup from a UKDM 7th gen. Plug and play, nice and easy. Hardest part was laying on the ground in the junkyard pulling them off.
