Brakes locking up?

I have been having a problem with the brakes engaging themselves on my SVX. The car would all of a sudden lock the brakes up itself and the brake pedal would feel very stiff, if you pumped the pedal a few times the brakes would release. I thought this was a bad caliper, so I replaced all 4(I found 2 bad ones), but the problem is still persistent. My SVX has a 5 speed swap and I was told that I need to shorten the rod on the master cylinder, but I don’t see how that would cause a intermittent problem like this. Any ideas?
