After reading this thread again I see you replaced the master cylinders, I did the same and found the same problem with the clutch I just could not get the air out. My fix was to get the original master cylinders sleeved and rebuilt and haven't had any issues since.

Both my sidescreens have original cylinders resleeved. It is only the new restoration car with Dot 5 that has the problem.
