    Well the front wheel cylinders are extremely hard to get to without a socket, so we made our own device up and used the tube and catch bottle this time. Cleaned up everything real well and I think we found a small leak on the front p***enger wheel cylinder.
    Should be able to put it on tomorrow night if it's not raining to bad. Really hope this fixes it.

    Car is finally back on the road!
    The end result problem was both front wheel cylinders. I guess they were holding up with my tired old master but were failing and letting air seep in when the booster pressure was applied. I really had no idea how to tell a bad wheel cylinder other than a leak.
    Thanks again for everyones help. I learned a lot so I can't be too upset.
