These " bleedin" Princess Calipers

[braveheart 3]

Hi all
Finally got to run the wedge after the recent clutch master cylinder fail following the brake master cylinder fail after putting on the Princess Calipers and again am going round in circles.
I have used a one man bleeder and after still air present resorted to a Ford mechanic mate who used the workshop pressure bleeder but again pedal travel not consistent so it looks like air still present.
Any ideas or something I am missing what a " conversion " this is turning into !
Should have stuck with the standard setup at least they worked !
Regards

A trick I learned from Leigh is to bleed the inlet pipe by undoing it slightly while pressure is being applied. In case the air is trapped there.

This might sound daft, I have heard you can put the calipers on the wrong side, are all the bleed nipples at the top of the calipers ?

Have you tried reverse bleeding ?
ie pushing the brake fluid back from the caliper bleed nipple ?
