%^&*$# brakes!

I have done a bunch of brake work in my time, but this one had me swearin. I started to do a $14 set of pads on the old 78 K 20, & ran into a collapsed hose . well, 2 hoses, & 2 calipers later & a bleed job , i am back in brakes. a few trips up/down the driveway, the peddle goes to the floor....WTF! i check the master for leaks, & its full....stamp the peddle HARD 4 or 5 times, & I have brakes again(for a little bit)....peddle goes back to the floor. the kid came out & we tried bleeding the brakes again, with no luck. my 1st thought would be master cyl......but i really wonder about that prop valve? We didnt get any air on the 2nd bleed, but not much fluid either . im up for ideas .....crazyL
