Yes, definitely bench bleed that master cylinder. You will fight with it forever and still not get the air out if you don't. Just disconnect your lines from the master cylinder and use the supplied plugs that the new one should have came with to plug the ports. Then just pump the pedal until the master cylinder begins to force fluid out past the plugs. Hook your brake lines back up and bleed them normally from there.
