Sticking calipers

I completed swapping in 76 power disc brakes to my 65. I've also installed all new brake lines. At first the front driver side caliper was sticking so I replaced it. Now both are sticking. I've bled the system multiple times and backed the adjustment rod (from booster to master cylinder) to the shortest possible length as well as tried a few other adjustment lengths. The master cylinder is new but I have the original portioning valve. Has anyone encountered this or know what the problem could be? Thanks
