Bleeding the breaks

Bleeding the breaks
We inherited a 1977 Vette that's had a lot of work done but do to circumstances I only know what I can see. That said the break pads have been replaced but the calipers a full of air. I've done countess break jobs through the years but this is the first time dealing with multi piston calipers. I'm using a break fluid pump and have pumped nearly a half gallon of fluid through them but so far can only get one of them clean. Is there a trick to this?

ive never had a problem with gravity bleed. When releasing the brake pedal , do it SLOWLY,. also check to see the master cylinder level does not go too low.
remove bleed valves and blow compressed air thru them.: a hand pump will work well.
