If they're still mushy you haven't got all the air out yet. Make sure you're doing the bleed procedure right. Need to pump them up and hold the pedal while the bleeds are opened. Then close it before releasing the pedal. Start at the closest wheel to the master and work your way along until you reach the fathest wheel. Usually left front first, then RF, LR, and finally RR. Be sure to keep the master full while doing it, or you'll suck more air in!

Try gravity feeding them, I've had good response with doing that, plus you can go off and do other things while the fluid is running. Be sure to leave the reservoir cover off, and keep a close eye on the level. And 1971BB427 gave you the bleeding rotation backwards. You start with the furthest ones first...right rear-left rear-right front-left front.
