Just did the disc brake conversion and installed the new calipers and a proportioning valve (PV71).

No air bubbles anywhere, just cannot get pedal. If I pump a couple times I can feel it.

Checked for leaks all around and nothing.

Any ideas?

Master cyinder is pretty new - probably a cuple hundred miles on it, if that.
Anything special about that proportioning valve? It has an electrical connection, but that's ot required for braking, is it?
