Default LOST ALL BRAKE PRESSURE

I attemped to install my new cobra brakes up front and got everything on and then bled all of the brakes... The pedal goes all the way down to the floor... Fluid is coming out of the bleeders steadily and there is no air in the lines, yet i have no brake pressure! No matter how much i bleed (been bleeding for 2 hours straight no joke), i cannot get brake pressure..

WTF. E-brake is the only thing that works... All i did was disconnect the front lines.. Now nothing works...

Do i need to bleed the master cylinder bleeders??

Sorry for choppy typing. My hands are covered in black from working on the car and i am in the middle of this... been doing it since 11:00 and its 4:00 now..

I put the stock brakes back on to see if i did something wrong with the cobra brakes, but still no pressure.. Someone please help. I have this thing on jack stands in my driveway!

not sure it will make a difference or not, but theres still no pressure with the car running? i would try bleeding the master cylinder if all else fails.
