Wilwood BBK, spongy pedal

Guys-

I installed a Wilwood 4 piston setup last Fall and the brakes are now spongy on hard braking. Braking pedal was softer than I hoped, but I could still lock them up. Did an autocross today, and I realized it just won't cut it. I don't know if I just didn't bleed them well enough, or if my MC needs to be bench bled, or my ABS block needs to be cycled during the bleeding process. Either way, I don't know where to start. For what its worth, when I bled the brakes with a Motiv power bleeder, the rear brakes went fine, but the Wilwoods seemed like very little fluid was coming through the screw.

Any help is appreciated, and I'm willing to pay to get them working well. Even a referral to a NNJ shop that could get me there. I hate brakes and I can never get them right.
