Hot Brakes

[wxman1]

Recently converted my 69 C10 P/U to front disk brakes. The system seemed OK at first but today the rotors got very hot...twice.

Here is a pic of the master cylinder/prop valve and power booster setup.
The master cylinder is a 1971 version and the prop valve is a MBM-PV2-GM Disc/Drum Proportioning Valve. It has 2 lines in the front for each front wheel
and one slightly larger line in the rear for the rear drum shoes.

After the 2nd test drive I measured the rotor temp with a non-contact Ir thermometer and it showed 475 degrees for the left front and 460 degrees for the right front. I stuck a large screwdriver into one of the vents on the ventilated disc rotor and attempted to turn the rotor but no dice...stuck hard.
I then loosened the bleed valve on that calipher ...fluid squirted out and then the rotor could be turned.

So why is the fluid pressure on the rotor not being released? I even took the master cylinder loose after the first over-heating event and and shortened the "plunge rod". The only thing that accomplished was to change the pedal position where the brake pressure is felt. The brake pedal gets very hard.

Any help on this problem is appreciated.
