Young1, it sounds like you may have air in the lines, old fluid, etc and need a thorough bleeding of the lines.

I tell you this from experience - I am the world's absolute worst brake bleeder to begin with, and the Wilwood double-master system Unique uses only magnifies my lack of ability. Seriously, when I bought my Unique (third owner), I couldn't lock the brakes. Took it to their shop (only 60 miles away from me, thank goodness!), Alan bled them, and oh boy what a difference! As Turnpike says, it will take a bit of leg, but you should be able to lock them. We are able to lock the "standard" Deluxe Pallet brake setup on both my car and my dad's 427 car.

When you install new pads, take some 80 - 100 grit sanding pads on an orbital sander and break the glaze on the rotors. Then follow the bedding instructions for whatever pads you use. This helps as well.

One other side item I'll mention, though it won't affect the actual force, is the pedal height. The stock setup has the brake pedal very low, which makes for easier heel-toe shifting. However, it always gave me the impression that I had terrible brakes because it felt like I was pushing my foot all the way to the grille in order to stop. Since I don't get spirited enough to heel-toe, I machined new extended pedal clevises to raise the pedal to a more "regular car" height, and this dramatically improved the feel to me.

Hope this helps, and best of luck getting it sorted. (Might post over on the Unique forum as well.)
