Camaro rear disc brake conversion - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

OK, I am fed up. I have the Camaro Rear disc brake brackets with the LT1 calipers and Impala rotors.
Truck is original 71 with Disc/Drum set up.
I can not get both sides to bleed. The driver side will spit out a nice stream of fluid but holding the brake pedal down it doesn't clamp enough to keep the rotor from turning. The other side just dribbles out.

What do I need? I am guessing I need a different combination valve (prop valve as some call them). Do I need a different Master Cylinder? Was hoping I could get this to work with what I have but I am doubting that now....

I have this set up currently:
