Well umm the brake pedal is going all the way to the floor for hard stops or after coming to a stop it goes ot the floor...fluid is full...pads and shoes are good...so my first suspicion is the MC..

I already had the search done, but thought wj would want to take his pick of about 5 good threads on brake cylinder replacement.
Here'* an article (originally posted by Ol' Timer himself) on MC issues in general:
http://www.babcox.com/editorial/tr/tr502b.htm
Detailed Bleeding Instructions
And a thread with specific bench bleeding instructions about 3/4 way through, compliments of Bill Buttermore:
MC & Brake Bleeding Thread
BTW, a MC will come with instructions on how to bench bleed it, along w/the fittings necessary.
