Once again thanks to everyone for their help!!! This started with my finding a front brake 2000 Grand Am upgrade on line. I was unsuccessful with this. My opinion, for whatever it's worth, don't bother. Bleeding did not work at all. even though it seems to. I've changed everything back to OEM. Bled brakes exactly the same everything works. Would seem the problem is the bleeder valve position. OEM is positioned straight up, the Grand Am valve, points inward. perhaps an air pocket remains above it that will not bleed. Maybe a pressure bleeder will work, but my 200,000 mile go anywhere anytime driver, will be staying stock up front.
P.S. The Park Ave 1998 rear upgrade works fine.
