Ryan,

Here's what I've got for you (in bold). Firstly, using explicit voices 
fixes the stem directions. The OttavaBracket's seem to be mis-behaving 
(and not showing up at all in the second measure, left hand--probably a 
bug), so you'll need some temporary overrides, but this should give you 
exactly what is needed. BTW, the bracket for "8vb" should ALWAYS go 
below the staff, not above, but that can be changed if absolutely 
necessary. Oh, and you might as well use the \tuplet function (which 
reverses the fraction, meaning "put 6 notes where you would normally 
see 4"). Here's the working code:

%<----------------- SNIP --------------------

\version "2.18.2"

right = \relative c'' {
  \voiceOne
  \once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.stencil = ##f
  \ottava #-1 
  \tuplet 6/4 { \change Staff = "left" c,,,16 ees g c \change Staff = 
"right" ees g } 
  \ottava #0 
  \tuplet 6/4 { c ees g c ees g } 
  \tuplet 6/4 { c b bes a aes g } 
  \tuplet 6/4 { ges f e ees d des } |
  
  % for some reason, this is the only OttavaBracket that shows up 
  % (a bug?), so it needs to be moved WAY down below the lower voice
  \once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.extra-offset = #'(0 . -17)
  \ottava #-1 
  \tuplet 6/4 { \change Staff = "left" c,,,16 ees g c \change Staff = 
"right" ees g } 
  \ottava #0 
  \tuplet 6/4 { c ees g c ees g } 
  \tuplet 6/4 { c b bes a aes g } 
  \tuplet 6/4 { ges f e ees d des } 
}

left = \relative c' {
  \voiceTwo
  \ottava #-1
  \tuplet 6/4 { c,,, g' c ees g c } 
  \ottava #0 
  \tuplet 6/4 { ees g c \change Staff = "right" ees g c } 
  \tuplet 6/4 { ees d des c b bes } 
  \tuplet 6/4 { a aes g ges f e } |
  
  \ottava #-1 
  \change Staff = "left" 
  \tuplet 6/4 { c,,, g' c ees g c } 
  \ottava #0 
  \tuplet 6/4 { ees g c \change Staff = "right" ees g c } 
  \tuplet 6/4 { ees d des c b bes } 
  \tuplet 6/4 { a aes g ges f e }  
}

\score {
  \new PianoStaff <<
    \new Staff = "right" \new Voice \right
    \new Staff = "left" { \clef bass \new Voice \left }
  >>
  \layout {}
}
