Not being able to achieve a good brake pedal finally got me motivated to fix the damn thing.
I ordered an ABS delete manifold but that hasn't even showed up yet.
While doing the IDS brake bleed, I remembered my buddy saying the reservoir 'may' have gone dry, but we bled the brakes a lot after that.
I ended up ordering speed bleeders

Napa has them too for $13.xx (listed under 2001 Corvette)
Turns out these fit the stock rear calipers perfectly as well.
After running a quart of fluid through the entire system, the brakes work absolutely awesome, and stop the car in a hurry.
Maybe now Ill drive the car a little. I haven't done a single car event besides Kentucky this year. I drove it to work once, other than that....nothing. :(
