I started talking this over with the guys at work. General consensus is
that there is probably just air still trapped in the lines. (duh) I
haven't yet - but I'm going to go drive it around the block a couple
more times and see if I can get the air bleed out after. If that fails
to do it - I'll try re-bleeding the master cyl the way that I KNOW works
lol.

Um - and despite your belief - you are not mechanically inept Jason :)
