Dont rely on the powerbraking action as a sign that its not working. Ultimetly you can overpower mechanical force with horespower. Its realy more for diagnosing which is braking first.
With the rear jacked up can you spin the rear wheels by hand at all? Since you moved the adjuster all the way out you should not be able too. If the adjust is bottomed out and the wheels can still be moved you have something assembled wrong in the drums.
Bleeding twice is probably not enough, when I change masters here its sometimes 2 or 3 times untill I'm happy with the pedal. Did you use the clear hose too see the color of the fluid (no bubbles too)?
You can give me call tonight, I'll be around.
