when you put the master cylinder back in, it wouldn't build pressure? That is because you didn't 'prime' the system. the master has not as much brake fluid as is necessary after being rebuilt, therefore air is going into the system. keep pumping it and bleeding it.

you need to pull the master off and bench bleed the master cylinder then put it back in the car hook it up and bleed it again at the slave...

if tat dont help you could have rebuilt the master wrong or you have a bad slve...

UH just open the bleed on one of the front rotors while somone pumps the breaks. Then close it. Use something to catch the juice.

Correct me if wrong. I have don't that on my other cars but not the FB.
