Perhaps you haven't got your system plumbed correctly? I was surprised that the kit did not want the rear brake fluid passing through the distribution block and could easily have been installed wrong had I not read the instructions a million times to verify.
Just spitballing here...

Proportioning valve replaces the distribution block on the conversions. Yes, on OEM, a distribution block was mounted to the frame rail below the master cylinder. For conversion to disc/drum or disc disc like mine, the distribution block is removed and replaced with the proportion/combination valve mounted under the master cylinder. Some install flat like mine, some install on-edge depending on the bracket used. The Inline Tube brake lines were pre-bent to terminate under the master with the rear brake connection coming off the front. You just have to cross the lines between the master and proportioning block for correct phasing of the brakes. The lines have different sized tube nuts to keep you from routing them backwards.
I've had it in 3 different shops, described the issues, explained the work already done, literally handed each of them my credit card and said fix the brakes, I don't car what it takes. They've all tried and failed. I've done everything I can and just can't trust the car to drive it. I will try the vacuum pump and if that's not the answer, the cover goes on and won't be coming off.
