Get the front end of the car up in the air when bleeding your I6. You can test the duo valve with a multimeter quite easily so give that a butchers.

You can get a chemical to run through the system for a couple of miles to get the crap out of the matrix. If your previous engine went pop, I can only imagine the gunk in the matrix is clogging it.

Keep us posted and get some pics up here! Well done
