Have somebody watch the car to see if the wheels are turning or sliding. Also, go over everything you've changed recently that might affect the brakes ability to hold the car, including even things like engine and converter changes. Finally, don't hold me to this, but 1000psi (front) and 800psi (rear) doesn't sound like an overabundance of clamping force.

Nothing was changed. Front tires locked, rears are rotating and pushing car.The 1000 psi can go higher. The 800 at rears will not go higher no matter what pressure is coming out of master.

Is it possible to bleed just the rear brakes and recheck the pressure ? Could be an air bubble .

Could be an air bubble but have bled them 5 times. Nothing but a solid stream of fluid.

Internal master cylinder leak only once the rear circuit gets to that pressure maybe?
