So the Z hasn't sold and I had some time to tinker, I took another shot at the brakes.
1st: I removed the check valves in the MC:
2nd: Bench bled the MC and made sure that everything was well plugged until I reconnected it to the lines.
3rd: Adjust the push rod about 3/4 turn out
4th: Was not able to JB weld the reaction disk to the push rod, but it felt snug in there when I return the rod back into place, I'm assuming its good because I had to clock it in toe get it seated all the way.
5th: I have some un-named brand pressure bleeder that works similar to Motive power bleeder minus the adjustable pressure regulator. I thought about getting one and connecting it between the bleeder and the coupler, but I was going to wait to see what happen after this attempt.
6th: Installed spring loaded bleeder screws an all 4 corners (don't remember the brand but there not Russell)
7th: Re-bled the system
And success! There is still a bit of distance in the pedal, before it went to the floor with almost no pressure and needed to be pump 3x to attain brake pressure, this time around I only need to press about 5/8 to get a good amount of grab.
Pretty much following Miles and tamo3's advice solved the issue.
