Okay I agree the master is bypassing,Trey tell us more about the master you bought. I won't buy a cheap master or a rebuilt master,even if it's not a rare or collectable car. I will kit with a good kit,because I trust my abilities more than the abilities of Chineese kids. Man how times have changed,kitting wheel cylinders used to be part of a standard brake job.

Possibke cause for intermittent loss of brakes could be boiling fluid. Happens when lines are run close to headers or exhaust pipes.
