The reason for the Motive is typical bleeding isn't working, pedal goes to the floor on hard braking and the thing just doesn't want to stop good. Front discs and S10, rears are 2nd gen Camaro drum, drums are adjusted OK. Is this a typical thing with below floor MC?
Did you bench bleed the MC?

And when bleeding did you use a low-pressure valve lockout tool like this below? MC low-pressure valves can easily deploy when bleeding.
