I have new rotors and the organic pads.
art if your still using the master from the power brake set-up , i'm guessing the pedal is rock hard. it has to large a bore for manual brakes. when running manual brakes you need to go to a smaller bore, and modify the pedal ratio.
i would get a brake pressure guage, and see how much you get at the calipers. usually 900 to a 1000 max should do. i'll bet now your in about the 400 range? if you want send me a pm with some info on the calipers ,master cyl.bore size ,and current pedal ratio, and i'll try to get you sorted out.
