No brake pedal when car running

Hello Guys,  72 240Z.

I'm almost ready to drive the car I bought last year, but I can't get a brake pedal when engine running.  It feels pretty firm with engine off.   I have replaced everything except booster and lines.   I have bleed multiple times, so I'm sure of no air in system.  In my experience when a booster is bad the pedal will be harder when car started.   Any idea?

That's exactly what is means.   Doesn't really drop to the floor on its own.  Just no resistance when pressing down.  Pedal does return to the top.   I bought the car with a seized engine and got that going .   Next was the brake system need attention.   I replaced calipers pads rotors and drums ,wheel cylinders ,shoes and hardware.  Not sure what else you need.   Thanks for your time zed head

I don't understand your point?   I'm here for help Zed.   You wanted details, I gave them to you.   What about the bleed screws?   They are all working properly.  I bled the system a few times.  Pressure, vacuum and manually bled just today.
