what have done wrong??
I filled the system, using a gunson easybleed kit. Used 1 litre of synthentic dot 4, ran through all air out of lines. So what have i done wrong?? It really has cheesed me off, I've spent a f@cking fortune, not including my soon to go in 20v, ko3s etc etc!
The only thing i can think of is, that i kept on the 9" clevis, but only because it had the hole there for spring, but i trimmed off 10mm from the 9" piston rod thread.
cheers boys.

I'd personally not use an Easibleed kit for the rears on a Mk1 Golf. They have either a presure reducer or a load compensating valve. Brake pressures are in the region of 2000psi. The valve greatly reduces this. So I don't think the 30psi or so of your spare tyre is going to worry it too much. Do it the old fashioned way, with a 1 way valve on the bleed nipple, and you should be okay. If its a new MC then pumping the pedal will be a non issue if done slowly.

Like Paul said, is the operating rod actually pushing te master cylinder via the servo ? What gap did you set between the rod and the aster cylinder ?
Are your rear shoes adjusted to be close to the drums ?
