By the way, did you notice the diameter of the master cylinder while you had it apart?

Here is a test for you to try. Go around the car and crank up all the starwheels as tight as you can, ie, brakes locked. How much pedal travel now? Should be virtually none. If there still is lots of travel, you have air someplace--or (it just occurred to me) the front piston set in your dual master cylinder has stuck forward and is not returning.

Another interesting test for that would be to have a buddy press lightly on the brakes while the car is jacked up and go around and try to spin each wheel.
