Get a radiator pressure tester,pressurize it at 20-25 lbs for 24 hours. That is about the best way I have found to get all the air out. If you don't have one you can get one from Autozone on their loan a tool program.

My Mezzaire will do this too. I just remove the top left side small allen head bolt from the pump that holds it to the pump housing, it bleeds out and then it picks up the water.

Well,I replied too soon. I went out and fired the car up an hour ago and the same thing,no water flow. I jacked the rear end up as high as I could and let the pump run for two minutes. Lowered it back down and let it sit. I just tried it again and no flow.
Everytime I shut the pump off I hear a burping sound like water is filling up a void. I guess I'll start bleeding it again in hopes that it will eventually work.

Is your fill point lower than the intake? If so you may need a remote fill point like on the intake. Lots of OEM's have the radiator lower than the highest part of the engine so they use a remote fill and a bleeder on the engine.
