Still fooling w/the brakes... 700 1990

The 745 I got w/135k is still giving me brake probs, got new front Girling calipers and had my mech. around the corner install em', still didn't get the pedal firm. Got a new rebuilt ATE MC and installed that, had the mech. bleed the system for the 2nd time, pedal still not firm. It's a non abs car. Have to check the rear caliper action to make sure they're activating properly. When I pull the vacuum valve out of the power assist unit behind the MC I get a whoosh of air leading me to think the booster is good. Just wanted to provide an update on my "progress",not.
